Stoker - 2013 - 6/10
After India’s father dies in a horrible car accident, her wayward Uncle Charlie appears.
Swiftly establishes himself in the estate as if born to it, and just before subsequent disappearances.
Slow, very slow boil thriller of the smiling predator, recognized by the moody daughter.
That said, there are several cruel twists, and formula expectations were foiled.
In essence, while this goes nowhere, the journey itself is perverse.
Mia Wasikowska and Matthew Goode memorable as the distorted pair.
Nicole Kidman almost perfect as widowed Southern belle, all too eager to move on.
