The Absent poster

An amusing Spanish mystery with strong thriller elements. It's a pretty typical mindfuck where one of the characters begins to question her own sanity as weird events start taking place. It's certainly not a beacon of originality, but if you're looking for a fun genre film then The Absent delivers.

Performances are decent, the presentation is solid, and the mystery is kept alive until late in the film. If you've seen a couple of these films before there won't be any big surprises here, but that okay. The execution is more important and director Calparsoro does a more than solid job. Good stuff.
