Family Curse

About This Movie

Family Curse is an interesting piece from 2017 that dives deep into the horror genre with a very atmospheric feel. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it pulls you in with its foreboding sense of dread. The woods themselves almost become a character, filled with this palpable tension. Practical effects are quite engaging, grounding the supernatural elements in a more realistic way. Performances vary, but there’s a rawness that adds to the film's unsettling tone. It explores themes of generational trauma and the idea that some legacies are better left buried, which gives it a unique edge. Not your standard horror fare, that's for sure.
