Aww shit and fuck her husband, he’s in on it. That town looks so small I bet it doesn’t even have a traffic light.

tbh I was intrigued until it got to the "husband tempted by young woman" shit. I'm so bored of that storyline, particularly when it paints the younger woman as a seductress rather than (what's more often the case) a victim of an older man.

I was suspicious at the beginning when she mentioned moving out there for him. Leaving the city for a farm in the middle of nowhere. Her husband doesn’t look like a farmer. lol

[sarahvma]

I don't know why but now I'm getting a home-grown Midsommar vibe -- like his family lures people here or something.

I've read the book and [spoiler]the young mistress is as much of a victim as his wife, and there's a significant time jump at the end where she became the lawyer who prosecute him idk if they'd add that in a 2 hour movie though.

excited to see amanda/james/natalia in a movie either way!

[sarahvma]

Oh, that's cool. I do hope they keep that for the movie, then.

Maybe it's a bit like in The Affair where it's visually presented as a he said/she said thing.

If you don't mind my asking, what else happens at the end? Horror movies stress me out, but I like knowing what happens lol.

sorry for late reply! [spoiler]I wouldn’t say it’s straight up horror, but more domestic thrillee. right in the beginning of the book, catherine is found dead with an axe on her head and later we found out it was george who did it :/ the horror of the house is just him/their crumbling marriage. in actuality, the ghosts of the new house is the former owners warning catherine of her fate, until it’s too late. george also murdered his professor boss and attempted to kill rhea seehorn’s character. kudos for them for not revealing much in the trailer honestly, lol

No worries, sorry for missing this! And oh wow, that does sound very dark.
