Interesting psychological film

Warning: Spoilers
The film The Lurking Man has a lot going for it, especially a very strong performance by its lead actress Maritza Brikisak who truly immersed deeply in her character. It's a very impressive Performance. The male leads Daniel Lench and David Gregory in particular are very convincing in their respective roles. What appears to initially be a simple scary film is actually a deep psychological film of a Mother seeking redemption for past mistakes and the her final sacrifice for a loved one. The final scene is particularly creepy and effective. Based on a novel written by Keith Rommel the film is never dull. The interesting and effective otherworldly imagery and the good and honest performances elevate the material beyond just a cheap scary movie. If you are looking for something interesting to watch with something with a deeper meaning then you might enjoy this film. A great effort. Recommended.
