When city dwellers Erkhmee and Selenge arrive at an old cabin deep in the Mongolian wilds, a foreboding settles over the couple. Erkhmee's seemingly keen desire to provide a safe and nurturing space for his artistic wife is at odds with the violent actions and mannerisms their quizzical neighbor observes. As the neighbor digs deeper for the reason behind this aberrant behavior, only more questions and trouble arise.

Visually well done, very suspenseful, and the style was wonderful.

Asian Movie Pulse

“Aberrance” has its issues regarding its narrative and the overall writing, but the cinematography, the acting, and its rareness as a Mongolian horror movie, make it a title that definitely deserves a watch.

Rated: 6.5

The first horror movie from Mongolia to get a U.S. theatrical release isn't perfect, but it shows promise.

References to Mongolian tradition can be found, but the real home for this movie seems to be a house built by other horror movies.

There is a style and mood that make Aberrance intriguing. It attacks the senses with violent imagery and a well constructed score. The thin script also manages to pack in some impressive twists and turns.

A technically rich film, Aberrance, doesn’t quite land its other components as easily. It does, however, remain a great first step into feature directing and makes Batsukh a director to follow.

Rated: 3/5
