A brilliantly unsettling blend of body horror and psychological thriller, Saint Maud marks an impressive debut for writer-director Rose Glass.

Disaster seems inevitable, but what makes Saint Maud so nail-bitingly tense is that it's impossible to guess the form in which it'll come...

St. Maud marks a stunning feature film debut for writer-director Rose Glass. Understated yet opulent, measured, and intensely creepy, it's a tour de force in balancing uncomfortable levels of tension and suspense with deep pathos.

Glass makes a number of savvy directorial choices throughout Saint Maud, and the sharpest is to limit what we see, hear, and know to her heroine's point of view.

Saint Maud combines traditional horror elements with mordant social observation.

There’s an atmosphere of being witness to something otherworldly in Glass’ intimate depiction of one person’s religious mania getting the better of them

In Saint Maud, post-traumatic stress disorder is not told, it is felt.

I think it would be the typical horror story but it surprised me for good. Sometimes I didn't know where the disaster would go but I knew it would come somehow. The music makes her feel more tense, full of suspense. I recommend.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

This is an amazing movie. It's so tense and a real mystery where it's going to go. Couldn't take my eyes away for a second. Unsettling and gripping. It stays right with you long afterwards.

Trauma can be hell on hearth or religious ecstasy but in both cases the road that leads to them is paved in martyrdom. Rose Glass you made a lot with very little. A tough movie to watch but if you are in for the ride you won't be disappointed.
