Cottage Pie

About This Movie

Cottage Pie is a peculiar blend of horror and political satire, really interesting in how it navigates the absurdity of its premise. The pacing is a bit uneven, at times drawing out the tension just enough to make you squirm. The atmosphere is thick with dread, especially as the two teenagers enter the cottage—it's almost claustrophobic. Practical effects are notable here; they add a raw, unsettling quality that enhances the horror without relying too heavily on CGI. Performances are earnest, capturing the naivety of youth against a backdrop of dark humor and societal critique. It's one of those films that sticks with you because it reflects our own absurd reality through a warped lens.
