Why watch this film?
Many consider 'The Fanatic' not only one of the worst movies of John Travolta's career (from 'Grease' and 'Saturday Night Fever'), but also one of the worst released internationally in 2019. And, indeed, it is a complicated movie, since it speaks about obsession and violence in a not very deep way and without the necessary amplitude. But for those who want a passing fun with a plot that reminds (a lot!) the excellent 'Misery', 'The Fanatic' can be a good entertainment. After all, with Travolta transformed into the screen, the feature film plays with the limits of obsession and blind fanaticism. It's one of those movies that invite the viewer to embrace their problems, understand their flaws and, thus, have fun without worrying too much about what the movie can or could have done. An unpretentious fun that assumes its bizarreness.

The Blackcoat's Daughter
Although it was released after I am the Pretty Thing that Lives in the House, The Blackcoat's Daughter (also known as February) is Longlegs director Oz Perkins' debut feature film, and from here one could already see the marks that would distinguish his later filmography: young women as protagonists of stories as minimalist as their production design, sound work, and camerawork, converging to create atmospheres that disturb through their stillness. In this film, the plot follows three young women (Kiernan Shipka, Lucy Boynton, and Emma Roberts), whose paths intersect in a story of loneliness and violence.

I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House
Osgood Perkins' second film (though the first to be released) is even more minimalist, yet imbued with contemporary gothic overtones. I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House follows a private nurse (Ruth Wilson) who must move into the remote home of a famous writer (Paula Prentiss), suffering from dementia. However, she soon suspects that the house is haunted and that her fate echoes that of the writer's sister who died decades earlier.
The Hallow
A family moves to a remote house in rural Ireland and finds themselves in a fight for survival with an ancient evil living in the secluded woods.
