I genuinely enjoyed “The Damned” from director Thordur Palsson.  Haunting and creepy with strong themes of grief and abandonment.  Odessa Young is wonderful as Eva, a 19th-century widow tasked with making an impossible choice – rescue the shipwrecked off the coast of her isolated fishing post or survive the cruel winter with their last remaining food.  The choices she made will return to haunt her.

“The Damned” from Vertical Entertainment will be released on January 3, 2025.
