Relic (2020)
6/10
Well shot movie but poor script...

Warning: Spoilers
The atmosphere is really creepy and slow to be honest, and I love those elements in movies when they're executed well, which in this case they were. Great acting by the actresses too. 6 stars for these aspects.

I got problem with the script though. What was the point of the young girl getting in that maze in the house? Did she entered the mind of the old lady? Did she experienced her dementia? I really didn't get the point of that scene. And I'm singling this scene out because it is a crucial scene in the movie that actually lost me at the end.

Also what was the point of picturing dementia as making old people creepy charred evil demons? To me, none. It actually made me laugh.

Nothing more than a thriller drama. Not even passable as a horror.
