Parlour Tricks

About This Movie

Parlour Tricks is a curious mix of comedy and horror that dives into family dynamics in a rather chaotic way. The setup, revolving around a seance gone awry, creates this awkward tension that's both amusing and a bit unnerving. You’ve got this motley crew of relatives, all vying for their piece of inheritance, leading to some darkly humorous moments. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it adds to that sense of unpredictability. The practical effects are low-key but effective, helping to sell the supernatural elements without overwhelming the narrative. Performances range from exaggerated to genuinely heartfelt, which gives it this offbeat charm. There’s something about its blend of humor and horror that sticks with you, standing out in a way that invites discussion.

Interesting take on family dynamics in horror.The blend of humor and scares is refreshingly offbeat.Practical effects enhance the supernatural feel without overshadowing the story.
