Santa Maud

It takes a standout performance to balance so many tricky narrative and thematic elements, and Morfydd Clark is here for the challenge.

...comes with the stamp of its creator and shivers with fresh possibilities.

...a taut, sinewy treat, blessed with an impressively fluid visual sensibility and boosted by two quite brilliant central performances.

...it’s more “cerebral” than it is horrific. But “Saint Maud” is just creepy enough to come off.

...one of a kind.

...the film punches out its warped drama with amazing gusto and Clark is lethally assured: not Saint Maud really, but Saint Joan, a spectacular horror heroine.

...is worth discovering at your own pace.

...a devilish good time.
