THE LODGE (2020)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
A Widowed Father takes his still grieving Children and his Fiancee to his Lodge (Think it's supposed to be the Berkshires in Western Mass), is called back into work, leaving the three - who have a somewhat dicey relationship- alone with a big winter storm moving in. Things begin to get odd.......
Potential is evident, a good sense of unease and an almost SHINING-esque atmosphere in parts. In hindsight, some parts of the story don't work. Although the Dad is an asshole, don't think He would be enough of one to plan nuptials so soon after the Children's mother dies, especially with Fiancee history. And it seems pat and unlikely that the two kids could make such an elaborate plan, seemingly off the cuff, much less have it work so well.
Not bad, but could have been much better. **1/2
