- UniqueMovies Deb HJuly 13, 2025OMG!! 😱 I just started watching and the children's mother,, OMG!! Blew me away!! But not as much as she got blown away!! 😱🔫 I did not expect that at all!!😱 The horrible things that teenage boy put his future stepmother through is on real!! He needs to get locked up!! Look with this teenage boy has done. The ending of this movie is totally devastating!!! This movie crushed my heart to the core!! I could only give it one star ⭐ The acting was amazingly good and the storyline was pretty slow running. Honestly, I can't say either way if this movie is worth a watch. I can't wait to remove it from my watch list.
- vanish LoyalJune 20, 2025It pissed me off.
- RyezooFebruary 7, 2025Went out of way to see this in hopes that it’ll be the next fantastic horror or similar to Hereditary. This isn’t that movie. Positives- The acting is amazing + the cinematography and editing is super captivating. The whole movie is so unsettling and the world is built so well. This movie kinda goes off the rails in the third act though and was not a fan of the ending.
- rg9400November 1, 2024The Lodge is a fascinating movie with a really interesting concept that gets a bit lost in the middle due to a decision, hampering the overall product. It begins really strong, setting the stage for an interesting conflict to emerge within the snowbound lodge. Initially, the movie turns this conflict onto its head, taking a strained relationship and drawing sides in a way that seems to subvert typical horror tropes. I really liked that. However, the movie then sort of enters this more surreal area where what is actually happening starts to get very confusing. I'm not opposed to that if I can sort of make theories, or if there are clues to the true nature of things. I feel this shift to surrealism also undercuts the themes a bit because it completely gets rid of the interesting dynamic it had initially set up. I was not enjoying this new direction much, but the movie ends by clearing up what is actually going on and bringing back the original themes and conflicts to the forefront. I just wish it had handled that section in the middle better. Regardless, it's a tense family drama with a focus on mental health and relationships, some cool cinematography, and strong acting by Riley Keough. I think I am much happier with the whole product after finishing it and being able to think about it, but I was certainly frustrated with where it was going while watching it. If it had handled that section better, I would think it would be one of the better modern horror movies. Regardless, I think it all works out in the end, giving a very unique take on what seems like a tropey setup, so I would still recommend it.
