The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017)

£0.00


Country: GB/EIRE/US
Technical: col 121m
Director: Yorgos Lanthimos
Cast: Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Alicia Silverstone, Barry Keoghan

Synopsis:

A negligent heart surgeon is stalked and then delivered an horrific ultimatum by the youth whose father died on his operating table.

Review:

Lanthimos again casts his dispassionate eye over a family home in extremis (Dogtooth) and asks: what are the limits of parental love and protectiveness? A somewhat superfluous exercise, but will be remembered for Keoghan's extraordinary performance and its grim premise.
