I really anticipated this movie but I was let down after watching it. 5 stars for the acting. That's it.
Everybody hyped it as the next big thing in body horror but Possessor is just a shadow of David Cronenberg's body horror. His son did a bad job here. A few bloody murders here and there but FAR from body horror. I'm not gonna mention other movies in this review but there are MANY far better modern indie body horror movies out there if you're really looking for them.
Who was the evil step son? We don't even see him in the movie except that image of him.
Why did they try to pull Tasya out even though she didn't even kill the CEO?
Why did Colin/Tasya visit the injured CEO afterwards in that quick scene?
Why does Tasya hate her family to the point of telling Colin to kill them when at the beginning we see her loving them and wanting to spend more time with them? She loses her guilt at the end but why? Does she want to be the best possessor? If so, why? What happened to her early in her life that later she so passionately wants to be the best possessor/assassin? Child trauma? We'll never know.
Many plot holes, very little body horror.
Sad to say it, but I actually don't recommend Possessor.
