A nice, original take on a famous horror niche. I'm not going to spoil which one, that would be ruining some of the fun, though pay a little attention, and you should be able to guess soon enough. It's Sheridan's stylish direction that makes the difference here, and turns this into a pointed and beautiful little horror film. The setting is lovely, the cinematography strong, the score very atmospheric and the mix of horror and drama just right. Rose is a pretty simple film and the way this particular horror niche is being reimagined isn't all that novel, but it does feel pretty fresh and everything works as it should. A pleasant surprise.
