Jamie

About This Movie

Jamie (2018) is one of those films that really digs under your skin. The atmosphere is tense, and the pacing feels deliberate, almost claustrophobic at times. It follows a young mother, just out of a psych ward, and you can sense her fragility throughout. The doctor’s realization that he might’ve misjudged her adds an unsettling twist to the narrative. What stands out here are the practical effects used—they enhance the horror without relying heavily on CGI. Performances feel raw and real, almost like a documentary at points. It’s interesting to see how this proof-of-concept short sets the stage for the feature film 'Jonah'. If you’re into horror that leans into psychological themes, this one certainly delivers.
