The Prodigy
In her much-anticipated foray into the horror-thriller genre, Golden Globe and Emmy nominee Taylor Schilling stars in THE PRODIGY as Sarah, a mother whose young son Miles' disturbing behavior signals that an evil, possibly supernatural force has overtaken him.
Fearing for her family's safety, Sarah must choose between her maternal instinct to love and protect Miles and a desperate need to investigate what – or who – is causing his dark turn. She is forced to look for answers in the past, taking the audience on a wild ride; one where the line between perception and reality becomes frighteningly blurry.
Critic Reviews:
- " It's a bone-chilling blast of a horror film that wakes up the normally sleepy first quarter of the year. " – Preston Barta
- " Given its status as pretty standard genre fare on the surface, the film goes down as a pleasant surprise and one that embraces its dark heart. " – Tom Beasley
- "The film manages to install a climate of terrifying concern in the relationship between mother and child. " – Paula Vázquez Prieto
