Men

What haunts you will find you.

In the aftermath of a personal tragedy, Harper (Jessie Buckley) retreats alone to the beautiful English countryside, hoping to have found a place to heal. But someone or something from the surrounding woods appears to be stalking her. What begins as simmering dread becomes a fully-formed nightmare, inhabited by her darkest memories and fears in visionary filmmaker Alex Garland‘s (EX MACHINA, ANNIHILATION) feverish, shape-shifting new horror film.

“It sticks with you. And it deserves to be experienced rather than explained.” (Chicago Tribune)

“With the male need to control women hitting a new flashpoint, Alex Garland’s urgent provocation stars the great Jessie Buckley as a widow threatened on all sides by toxic masculinity. Though Garland is stingy with answers, his implications are incendiary.” (ABC News)

“‘Men’ is often unsettling but not necessarily in the expected ways, which is mostly to the film’s credit.” (Salon.com)

“Perhaps without intending to, Garland has hit on an all too timely truth: that men seek to control women as a response to their own self-loathing.” (Time Magazine)
