Cruel and Unusual Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
