About This Movie

I Am Going to Kill Someone This Friday is a peculiar blend of mystery and thriller that really plays with the mundane. Robert Partridge's ordinary life contrasts sharply with the dark thoughts simmering beneath his surface. The pacing has a slow burn quality, slowly tightening the tension as Robert's facade starts to crack. You get this eerie atmosphere, almost claustrophobic, where the normalcy of his family life feels like a ticking time bomb. The performances are solid, especially from the lead, who captures that unsettling duality perfectly. There's a rawness to the practical effects that ground its more surreal moments. It's definitely a film that lingers with you, unsettling in its exploration of the ordinary turning sinister.
