Daddy Issues

About This Movie

Daddy Issues (2012) dives into that familiar horror trope of students trapped in an institution with a killer on the loose. The tone is gritty, almost claustrophobic, which really works in favor of its premise. There’s a rawness to the performances that gives it a certain edge, even if the cast isn't widely recognized. The pacing is a bit uneven—some moments drag while others hit with sudden intensity. And though you might not find groundbreaking practical effects here, there are some creative kills that stand out. It’s not a polished film, but it has a certain charm that speaks to those of us who appreciate low-budget horror gems.

Daddy Issues has had a somewhat limited distribution, which makes it a rarity among collectors. It wasn't released widely, so finding a physical copy can take some digging, especially since it flew under the radar upon its release. There’s a niche interest among those who appreciate independent horror, and while it may not be a household name, its unique vibe and chaotic atmosphere make it an intriguing piece for anyone looking to explore the depths of early 2010s horror cinema.
