speak no evil
opening night
James Watkins comes back with a brilliant remake of the Danish horror thriller by Christian Tatdrups SPEAK NO EVIL. In his interpretation an American family meets an Irish one, and from there things get out of hand. James McAvoy’s performance recalls Jack Nicholson’s unforgoten appearance in SHINING. As for the Mackenzie Davis, Scoot McNairy and Aisling Franciosi they are no less impressive in this head-spinning tour de force full of bitterly wicked humour.
