Martha (Elizabeth Olsen) leaves the commune she's been living with for the last couple of years when she realizes it's a cult and moves in with her sister (Sarah Paulson) and her husband (Hugh Dancy) but can't leave behind the trauma as easily.
This is billed as a thriller and it is decidedly not. Olsen does her best to look vacant-eyed and mildly concussed but that's not actually a character, just some medical symptoms. John Hawkes has already played a similar role but better in Winter's Bone and this just feels watered down.
It's like this wants to be the art-house version of The Strangers so badly but absolutely no one asked it to be.
It's streaming on Paramount+ so you know where to avoid.
