Synopsis
A bold coming-of-rage story. Joy is an undocumented Filipina immigrant who is struggling to do the best she can for her daughter when she secures the perfect job; taking care of an extremely wealthy but terminal old man. The new position pays well and guarantees a roof over their heads but very soon, Joy and her daughter Grace start to realize everything is not as it seems. Something is festering beneath the surface, threatening all they have worked for. Deeply personal, “Raging Grace” is a nightmarish fever dream from an exciting new voice. [SXSW]
Reviews
Bloody Disgusting review graded the film 3 of 5 skulls writing, “It’s the twisting arcs of its antagonists that keep Raging Grace so engaging, and it’s what anchors the shifting subgenres of horror that Zarcilla employs. Gothic horror quickly veers into drama, then back again as it injects jump scares, a moody atmosphere, and a bit of supernatural to balance the reality-based terrors of Joy’s plight. Not all of it works, as some of the tonal shifts can be jarring, and the more overt horror elements can be sparse.”
