Months after escaping a brutal kidnapping, Meg travels with her husband, Scott, to his family's isolated compound in Cape Cod, hoping the early winter quiet will give her space to recover and for them to reconnect. Shortly after they arrive, however, the couple discovers they are not alone on the property. Scott's charming but overbearing cousin, Madelin, is staying next door. To Meg's surprise, the two are quite close and soon Madelin's presence is inescapable. With each passing day Meg and Scott's already fragile relationship begins to fracture, while Meg is haunted by vivid nightmares, visions of an old woman lurking in the woods, and a growing suspicion that Scott and Madelin are hiding something from her. As the tension in the house grows, Meg begins to act out in increasingly reckless ways, setting into motion a series of disturbing events that shatters the thin barrier of civility between her and the cousins. Subtle manipulation gives way to violent confrontation as Scott and Madelin reveal their troubling history and Meg learns the truth about her abduction.

Alexandra Heller-Nicholas AWFJ.org This movie offers an extraordinary sense of indefinable visceral dread and a deeply satisfying mystery, all framed through the lens of Lloyd’s radical rethinking of the final girl. Jun 23, 2023 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting For those that don’t mind wading into the darker recesses of a fractured mind, Somewhere Quiet offers a melancholic, intimate, and moody seaside epilogue of a Final Girl’s story. Rated: 3/5 Jun 12, 2023 Full Review Terry Staunton Radio Times Kim does well as a survivor trying to process trauma and cling on to her sanity, and Audley confidently blurs the line between sympathetic and potentially menacing. Rated: 3/5 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Brittany Patrice Witherspoon Pop Culture Reviews In this psychologic horror/thriller, Lloyd encapsulates trauma and paranoia with sensitivity and care. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 26, 2024 Full Review Chad Collins Dread Central Somewhere Quiet is a promising debut from Olivia West Lloyd even if it’s regularly constrained by the horror convention of today. Rated: 3/5 Apr 1, 2024 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Picking up where many horror movies leave off, this tightly wound psychological thriller is a powerfully unsettling glimpse into trauma and paranoia.

Tanya V. I’m another disappointed viewer of this film. I get that we’re supposed to feel the madness and confusion that the main character is experiencing, and I certainly felt it, but god that wasn’t enough to make this worthwhile. There was nothing for the viewer to grasp onto as a storyline. We didn’t know what type of incident the woman experienced until 30 minutes in and literally nothing happened in that 30 minutes. The husband didn’t seem to care about her but was that all in her mind? Who was the older woman? Why did he not fix the van and take her home? What the heck with that ending? Was she doubting herself and her fear AGAIN? After all that? And if so, why should I care because the characters don’t even care enough to drop a single hint. That just felt much much much too loose, stunted, and unresolved. No. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Ezzie k Oh please this is not a horror movie it has limited gore and fear is suspenseful drama it's not even a psychological thriller this is a country song made into a movie did the person who wrote this just listen to before he cheats by Carrie underwood a few to many times??? Ugh I'm so disappointed i liked clowns in a cornfield better but maybe that's just me this an unfinished group project of a movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/29/25 Full Review Melissa M I initially saw a lot of potential in this movie, but as it unfolds, it leaves me with more questions than answers. The story of the woman who was kidnapped remains puzzling—details are scarce, and the clues pointing to her husband seem intentionally satirical. The plot is full of twists, yet it became so convoluted that I struggled to understand what truly happened to her, both in her past and in her present. I love a good thriller, but this one was a disappointment for me. I’m surprised by the positive reviews others have given it. Calling it a slow burn is an understatement; it’s much more complex and bewildering than that. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/24/25 Full Review Bryan W Pls don’t watch this like actually buns bro, plot is everywhere and you have no idea what’s going on it’s trash. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/25 Full Review Anita C I was greatly disappointed as I was hoping to find a good mystery to watch for entertainment. However, this movie left this viewer confused frustrated and not entertained at all. The focus on the narrator's psychological trauma is so haphazard that it loses sight of a real plot with a climax and a somewhat sizable ending to this ginormous chaotic back and forth of each person's perspective in this movie, not just the narrator. This leads to utter confusion and a complete loss of plot ascension, character development, or anything else feasible within some type of understanding. There's even a character in the movie that gets brought in that the narrator meets at a restaurant. He wasn't in her trauma or in her future. Therefore what was the purpose of putting him in the storyline. The movie pretends to be clever with its twists and turns but like Allison wonderland you just fall through the rabbit hole. What a waste of money time and energy. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/16/25 Full Review Parker V This movie has a lot of details that weave nicely together at the end. It's super ambiguous, but that's the point. I definitely felt anxious the whole movie. On Hulu it's listed as horror / thriller but it's 100% psychological horror. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Read all reviews
