Vicious
Vals
A girls weekend in a remote cottage in the Ardennes. Relationships are put into focus - do the four girls know everything about each other? The filming of the 'best youth book' of 2012 written by Mel Wallis de Vries.
Why it matters
A tense psychological thriller that uses a claustrophobic girls’ weekend to dissect trust, secrets, and the dark undercurrents in female friendships.
- Sharp character interplay turns this from a typical isolated-cabin setup into a study of betrayal and hidden pasts.
- The Ardennes setting amplifies the creeping dread with its dense, suffocating forests and remote isolation.
- Fans of intimate, dialogue-driven horror will appreciate the slow-burn tension over jump scares.
- Not your standard slasher — it leans into emotional horror, probing how well we really know those closest to us.
