Goodnight Mommy

More of a psychological horror film than anything else. It lingers a bit too long in the setup aspects, considering the elements are extremely predictable. There are some societal differences between Austria and America that might infuriate some viewers. The horror is effectively horrific when the last act kicks in. Beautifully acted, directed and shot, with some effective tension building, but the predictability lesses the impact.
