Stay beyond the end credits! - Behind the Trees review by NP
An initially slow-moving, talky film, this is nevertheless effective. Director and co-writer Vikram Jayakumar treats us to shadowy figures and suggestions of horror rather than plentiful effects or jump-scares; good performances and an under-used location and theme add to the whole.
There’s a genuinely surprising ending which is sign-posted at the very start (I didn’t guess the outcome!), a really nice sense of mood enhanced by good use of the Indian location. Also, I can’t pretend Vanessa Curry (as Amy) isn’t easy on the eye as well as playing a fairly convincing role here. My score is 8 out of 10.
