Relic (2020)
Directed by Natalie Erika James
Quick Hit
Relic plays like a head-trip horror pieceāsad, moldy, with enough style to make the damage look beautiful.
Full Take
Relic leans hard into psychological horror energy, and Natalie Erika James keeps the tone sad without letting the movie drift. The filmmaking is locked in, the atmosphere is doing real work, and the payoff earns the damage. It may not be for everybody, but it definitely has teeth.

Thereās a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.
