If read as a commentary on being a (single) parent going through a tough time, Jennifer Kent's film makes more sense, in other words Repulsion rather than The Evil Dead. And it's also quite funny seen in that context. It's a remodel of her own 2005 stylish B&W short Monster.
Still has some horror nonsense absurdities however.
Essie Davis is given the opportunity to really let go in a creditable performance, Noah Wiseman is the kid.
I thought it was rather good.
