Quick Hit

The Housemaid throws horror on screen with real nerve, but the finish is razor-sharp. That confidence is the whole game.

Full Take

You can feel the movie reaching for a hit from frame one. When the image is sharp and the menace is clean, it lands. Once the mood is set, everything comes down to whether the film can cash in its own setup. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That keeps it stuck at ELITE.
