The Killing of a Sacred Deer
Description
Dr. Steven Murphy (Colin Farrell) is a renowned cardiovascular surgeon presiding over a spotless household with his ophthalmologist wife Anna (Nicole Kidman) and their two exemplary children, 12-year-old Bob (Sunny Suljic) and 14-year-old Kim (Raffey Cassidy). Lurking at the margins of his idyllic suburban existence is Martin (Barry Keoghan), a fatherless teen who Steven has covertly taken under his wing. As Martin begins insinuating himself into the family's life in ever-more unsettling displays, the full scope of his intent becomes menacingly clear when he confronts Steven with a long-forgotten transgression that will shatter the Murphy family's domestic bliss.

Stanley Kubrick and Carl Theodor Dreyer invade the margins of the strange world of moral and sexual promiscuities, so dear to Yorgos Lanthimos. [Full Review in Spanish]

Strange, insidiously sadistic tale of guilt and retribution which will inevitably confound its art-house audience.

Performances are solid all round, but the standout is Irish actor Keoghan. Shy and lonely one moment, utterly blood-chilling the next, he's a mesmerizing presence on this screen of menace.

Desolately beautiful. [Full Review in Spanish]

An amazingly weird assemblage of notions from Greek mythology and concepts from pessimistic geniuses like Stanley Kubrick, Roman Polanski and Michael Haneke, the film creates something akin to a dreadful dream.

No matter your final decision on the heart-stopping, nerve-shredding, gut-clenching The Killing of a Sacred Deer, one thing is for sure - you won't forget it in a hurry.

It's less a film about crime and punishment than an occasion for Lanthimos to cycle through the idiosyncratic set of perversities that first grabbed our attention but has been growing staler with each picture.

And while definitely an acquired taste, there is still something beautifully unsettling hiding behind the film's deadpan façade.

The Killing of a Sacred Deer is haunting and singular and strange, but it's also icy, remote, and too enigmatic.

Lanthimos' greatest strength as a writer (along with his frequent collaborator Efthymis Fillippou) and director is his ability to elicit laughter from distressing situations, and there are a handful of such scenes here permeating with suffocating dread.

This is the feel-bad film of the year. Recommend it to someone you hate.

The characters don't register as real. Stephen's dilemma - he must choose to sacrifice someone he loves - carries no real emotional weight.
