HOOKED

Today's film was The Sound of my Voice (2011)

Two investigative reporters sign up with a cult to check it out and expose their chicanery.

We get to be right in the middle of this process and I almost signed up myself!

A con game? Maybe. Certainly there is evidence enough. And then there is the ending. More evidence.

Who gets hooked? What happens with the couple?

What is going on here?

The clairvoyant is from the future. 2041. So she knows what will happen.

Do we?

I liked this. Some things had me going. Tricks are used but the film is wonderfully edgy and answers are not really given until you need to see or hear them. I did not figure anything out in advance and I jumped when "it" happened.

Not one person jumped out and said boo. There was no chain saw. No one drank Kool Aid. Although they might have.

Once you see this there is no future for it. That is a 3 out of Netflix5 in my book.
