This film is a remake of the Danish original, 'Speak No Evil' (2022), and it departs somewhat from the original; where the Danish original was a slow burn descent into social etiquette hell, this remake veers the story into more terrifying territory.

The atmosphere is so suffocating and a great juxtaposition to the bucolic countryside setting, the film expertly builds tension and is aided by a well crafted score, you will be filled with dread.

Like the original, the film has great characterization that is used to paint a picture of how we are creatures of social norms.

The performances are excellent, particularly from McAvoy who executes the role of the charismatic and volatile psychopath, a character you won't soon forget.

The film has some intense violence and shocking kills.

Directed by James Watkins, known for 'Eden Lake' (2008), 'The Woman In Black (2012), and 'Clayface' (2026).

'Speak No Evil' cast features: James McAvoy, Mackenzie Davis, Scott McNairy, Aisling Franciosi, and others.

If you enjoyed this paranoia inducing thrill ride, we highly recommend you watch the original too so you can compare and contrast.
