This week we unwrap the bandages on 2014's Goodnight Mommy. An Austrian psychological thriller with a cult following. SPOILER WARNING: Make sure to watch the movie before listening to this podcast so that the big twist isn't spoiled (currently free on Prime).


After returning home from facial surgery with her face heavily bandaged, a mother’s cold behavior unsettles her twin sons. As small clues and cruel tests mount, the boys become convinced the woman is an impostor.

Tension spirals into a brutal psychological descent of grief, hallucination, and violence, building to a shocking climax that forces the family’s tragic truth into view.
