Triple Bill Mini Musings: Lovely, Majestic, Godly...

Lovely Molly:
What's it about?
From Eduardo 'The Blair Witch Project' Sanchez, this low-fi, slow-burn, chilling, skin-crawler of a haunted house flick centres on the titular newlywed (and ex-junkie) as she returns to the not-so-peaceful family home in rural Maryland and discovers that something's going bump in the night.
Who would I recognise in it?
Alexandra Holden.
Great/Good/Alright/Shite?
I'd heard good things about this, but didn't know an awful lot about the movie itself, and perhaps that helped. It's a gradually-paced flick that prefers a highly unsettling soundscape and carefully suggestive visuals, that hold back up-front horrors in favour of something altogether more effective at getting the shivers to bother your spine. It's worth sticking around as the gently ratcheted tension builds into a haunting finale. Good.
