Torment

About This Movie

So, 'Torment' is this low-key horror thriller that ticks a lot of unsettling boxes. You've got this couple, Cory and Sarah, trying to enjoy some family bonding time with Cory's young son, Liam, in the countryside. But it all goes sideways when Liam goes missing. The atmosphere is tense, really ramps up the psychological dread, and then it shifts into this outright horror with that cult-like family lurking around. The performances have a rawness to them—especially in how they portray panic and desperation. The practical effects are decent, adding a gnarly layer to the horror. It’s not your conventional horror flick; it plays with your mind before it shows you its darker side. Worth a watch if you appreciate those slow-burn types that get under your skin.
