Relic

Johnny's comments:

Relic is a haunted house horror thriller where a daughter and a granddaughter are asked to go to the grandmother's home to help find her as she seems to be missing. But a couple of days later, she turns up as if nothing has happened. Slowly but surely the grandmother's cognitive and physical attributes begin to decline but is it dementia or a something more sinister from inside the house. Not bad, a bit of slow burn that doesn't take off until the final act but is fairly watchable.

Conscious

Johnny's comments:

Conscious is a thriller where a reclusive psychiatrist who is haunted by the death of his wife is coerced back into restarting his radical therapy practice to help save two women who seem to have no conscience nor fear/anxiety. The therapy is basically legal torture plus the use of a dream recorder which gives him an idea of what haunts the women. But the longer the women are there, the closer the psychiatrist comes to his own truth which shocks both woman who try to escape from his remote property. Barely 70 minutes long and very slow to get going, the movie is underdeveloped and too long but I'm not sure what would be the better option. Needs more work...
