Pieces of Her (2022– )

A young woman, uncertain about her life choices, suddenly finds herself in a completely unknown world on the day her mother defends her from an armed assailant in a surprising manner.

'Pieces Of Her' is a thriller miniseries, with a strong plot and more or less charismatic and relatable main characters. The first 4 episodes fills the viewer with enough tension and intrigue to keep curiosity at an intense and constant level, but as the details begin to be revealed, the mystery is less impressive and the overall effect is much diluted, with a final twist that can be seen from a great distance.

Relic (2020)

A family composed of a mother, a daughter and the grandmother are the victims of some supernatural manifestations that have an unexpected significance.

Relic is a really different horror movie. It's original, intriguing, and very enigmatic up to the end. The mystery and confusion are persistent, but without becoming excessive and frustrating. The ending and the explanation have a more pensive effect and a metaphorical significance and will not be easily forgotten.

Director:  Natalie Erika James    

With: Robyn Nevin, Emily Mortimer, Bella Heathcote, Steve Rodgers
