HORSEHEAD (2014) - * & 1/2 out of four

Directed by Romain Basset
Ambitious attempt at a modern Gothic tale is a sophomoric, overwrought, and incoherent mess of a movie. Some of the visuals are alluring, and genre veteran Catriona McColl gives an admirably intense performance. But the uneven direction, stilted dialogue, and frenetic editing, make this a near unwatchable experience and a missed opportunity.
