A darker, maybe better take on The Good Son. The pacing can be glacial at times, but it is a story about a bored child’s fascination with death, so I think it’s forgivable. A lot of people compare it to Psycho, but I don’t see it at all. The only real overlap is that it focuses on a disturbed boy living at a motel with a parent. Oh, I’m adding a “creepy kid” filter for this film.
