Review of Possum (2018) by Riff J — 04 Nov 2018
A triumph of uncomfortable cinema.
The uneasy 1970s British atmosphere hangs heavy in the air, with long lonely shots lingering for just long enough to burn their imagery into your brain and strained silences broken only by the excellent soundtrack from the Radiophonic Workshop.
Sean Harris, as always throws himself head first into this movie and gives a superbly tormented performance.
Directed by Matthew Holness, this is a deliberately paced, disturbing and wonderfully unsettling start to his feature film career.
I've a feeling this movie will stick with me for a long time. The new uncanny indeed.
