Speak No Evil (2024) 7/10
American couple with daughter based in London meet ‘Bristolian’ James McAvoy and family on holiday in Italy then go visit his West Country farmhouse for another holiday when they return to the UK.
This is a decent psychological horror movie that builds nicely, creating a sense of discomfort for the visitors and audience, starting with relatively innocuous stuff like serving goose to a pescatarian and going on to more heinous behaviour.
McAvoy’s West Country is all over the shop (I know as I talk to @ScottBailey sometimes) but this movie is well executed and the tension builds really well. Not a massive fan of horror but this was a decent watch. Some memorable dance scenes with Rednex - Cotton Eye Joe.
