Speak No Evil (2022)
8/10
I NEVER, EVER WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN.

Warning: Spoilers
The film is so twisted and horrifying in every moral way possible. Very interesting, but that ending made me wanna puke. The moral standpoint and anger I had toward the ending. How do you not do anything in that situation and are somehow a father? The final 15 minutes are horrifically unforgettable, featuring a moment of extreme violence that dares viewers to look away. It is so unsettling, in fact, that the very idea of rewatching the film is outrageous. Speak No Evil is riveting and upsetting in equal measure. And I never, ever want to see it again.

Synopsis: On a vacation in Tuscany, two families -- one Danish, one Dutch -- meet and become fast friends. Months later, the free-spirited Dutch family extends an invitation to the more conservative Danish one for a holiday weekend getaway at their countryside home. However, it doesn't take long before things gradually get out of hand as the joy of reunion is replaced with misunderstandings. The Dutch hospitality quickly turns unnerving for the Danes, and they find themselves increasingly caught in a web of their own politeness in the face of eccentric... or is it sinister... behavior.
