Dorothy Mills brings to the fore a variety of threads we can see elsewhere in Merlet's work; distressed youth, dysfunctional societies, and a tendency to experiment with different genres, weaving them together to make her own unique vision Go to Full Review

"Dorothy Mills" is atmospheric and well acted, but too derivative to be memorable. Go to Full Review

nilufer e @Nilicim 07/23/2023 It was somewhat intriguing but mostly full of cliches. The acting was good though and I think I didn't understand all of it. It was just 'meh', I was fooled by the poster; it looked scary. See more 04/01/2022 Basically if M Night Shyamalan's 'Spilt' had a special needs Irish cousin. See more 02/14/2015 "It's like a modern day 'Exorcist'" proclaims the DVD box. No, it's not. More like an Irish version of "Sybil." For some unexplainable reason, I'm reminded of "The Daisy Chain," another portrait of a disturbed little girl in Ireland. Unlike that movie however, "Dorothy Mills" has a strong performance (or should I say, "performances") from the actress playing it's title character. The line between scientific fact and paranormal phenomena does get blurred in an interesting way. Overall, not a bad little movie. See more 01/04/2014 A Little Gem to be Discovered--Not a typical possession flick!! See more 11/04/2013 Very original, well scripted and several plot twists. See more @c0urtn3y 05/13/2013 hmm -- not bad! i did think it was fairly predictable, however i didn't see the end twist coming. See more Read all reviews
