Joy (Max Eigenmann) is an undocumented Filipino immigrant struggling to do the best she can to support her daughter, Grace (Jaeden Boadilla). Soon she secures the perfect job: taking care of an extremely wealthy but terminal old man. The new position pays well and guarantees a roof over their heads, but very soon, Joy and Grace start to realize everything is not as it seems. Something is festering beneath the surface, threatening all they have worked for.

Jeffrey P

Slow burner about a housekeeper who carries her daughter around in a suitcase and hides her in closets, story ends with a fizzle.

It was pretty good for awhile but just got too outrageous and ridiculous. The ending was really lame. I'd never want to watch it again. Don't bother.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

It's a good horror movie with an underlying message on immigration in the UK. Not wow but okay.

Started off ok, then got really stupid. I really don't understand how anyone could rate this movie beyond anything more than a 1 star. Pure garbage.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

A simple "I don't understand it cos I have a low IQ" would be better than most of these embarrassing low reviews from yanks I assume.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

Peel back the cliches and there’s something interesting here: a gnawing sense of injustice and biting social commentary.

Rated: 3/5

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

Zarcilla strains so hard to match the politics of the premise with the parameters of horror that he ends up diluting both — imagine Roma meets Poltergeist, or The Maid meets Insidious.

Rated: 2/5

Jonathan Romney

Financial Times

Zarcilla may have more ideas than this film can easily accommodate, or the viewer easily swallow, but he is a distinctly stylish and confident director to keep an eye on.

Rated: 3/5

C.H. Newell

Father Son Holy Gore

Paris Zarcilla’s Raging Grace is a powerful, occasionally funny, and dark exploration of how whiteness impacts the lives of immigrants, particularly Filipino immigrants living in the United Kingdom.

Rated: 4.5/5

John Serba

Decider

The film is shrewdly directed, intelligent and entertaining, from a director who knows how to play his audience’s nerves like a piano, and its funny bone like an idiophone.

Carla Hay

Culture Mix

The story in Raging Grace gets a bit messy, and some of the acting is too stiff, but it's a genuinely unique horror movie that succeeds in offering many effective jump scares along with astute observations about immigrant exploitation.
