Description: The unsettling calm of suburban life shatters in Michael Day's "Clawfoot," a psychological thriller that expertly plays on our anxieties about home invasion, not just of the physical kind. Francesca Eastwood delivers a powerhouse performance as the seemingly fragile housewife whose meticulously crafted world unravels under the insidious influence of a charming yet menacing contractor (a chilling Milo Gibson). Olivia Culpo and Oliver Cooper add layers of complexity to the supporting cast, while Nestor Carbonell provides a grounding presence amidst the escalating tension. Day masterfully crafts a slow-burn narrative, building suspense with unsettling visuals and subtle shifts in power dynamics. While the narrative centers on home renovation, "Clawfoot" is ultimately a chilling exploration of control, manipulation, and the unexpected strength found within vulnerability. This isn't just a home-invasion thriller; it's a descent into the darkest corners of the human psyche.
