FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE M. Night Shyamalan - Split
Another surprise from M. Night Shyamalan! A masterful shock twist! Hitchcock influences, horror and therapy session alike. Just like his last work, Split was created on a low budget and is aimed at his sworn horror fan base. In focus: A perpetrator with dissociative personality disorder - why James McAvoy is performed in half a dozen roles. A multiple identity, split into 23 personalities: Brian, the couturier, Hedwig, a lisping nine-year-old or Dennis, the control freak. They all struggle with other rival egos for mental supremacy. Two of them kidnapped three young girls. One of them, Claire (Haley Lu Richardson), has experiences of abuse that enable her to decipher the psyche of her tormentor... It's important to emphasize that Split doesn't just stick to his twist. If you could spot Split earlier, you'd still have a solid horror film between exploitation and seriousness. Some will delight Split to a high degree, others will overtax him. A work for many personalities.
