Martha Marcy May Marlene Blu-Ray Review
Synopsis: In her stunning feature film debut, Elizabeth Olsen delivers "an electrifying, star-is-born performance" (Rolling Stone) in this gripping psychological thriller that is "far and away one of the year's best" (Associated Press)! After escaping from a dangerous cult and the watchful eye of its charismatic leader (Academy Award(R) Nominee John Hawkes), a young woman named Martha (Olsen) tries to reclaim a normal life with her family. But the haunting memories from Martha's past trigger a chilling paranoia - and nowhere seems safe as the fragile line between her reality and delusions begin to blur.
Review: If you or someone that you love was exposed to life in a cult, how would the aftermath be? How do you return to society after a traumatic experience? This film introduces the youngest Olsen sister as the ex-victim of a disturbing cult. The dual story shows her experiences in the cult and her recovery with her sister. This one is rather emotional and definately a fantastic drama.
