An elderly woman, seemingly addressing us from the future, looks back on a night in the 1990s when she and teenage girlfriends gathered for a sleepover to swap spooky tales and dabble in occult mischief.

As it explores the intersection between the occult and mankind's brutal cruelty in relation to women, "The World Is Full of Secrets" grips us with its minimalist, calibrated and cerebral scare tactics.

New York Times

Despite the narrator's promise that what we see are her own recollections, Swon's camera does not seem interested in the texture of life as it is experienced by teenage girls.

Swon puts tremendous pressure on his young actors, keeping the camera on a single girl for extended stretches while they are telling their stories, and to pull that off requires technique and experience that they just don't have yet.

Rated: 5/10

It was really interesting because the story telling keeps you hooked. But I didn't find it scary as it was supposed to be. I wish the ending was more revealing though; what the hell happened to them??

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
