Review of The Clan

The Clan (2015)
8/10
chilling
15 May 2023
A family patriarch keeps his wife and children in a cult-like grip, running a kidnapping and murder racket as a family business. The performance by Guillermo Francella will chill your blood. His ice-cold blue eyes perfectly convey the narcissistic sociopathy of the father. When is his son Alex, Peter Lanzani, finally confronts him, it leads to a climactic finish that will have you literally gasping. Those two elements alone make this film well worth checking. Out. The direction is unflinching in its portrayal of violence greed and amorality. The choice of an 80s hit-list for the soundtrack is a bold one, but for me it overcooks things somewhat. The music jars with rather than complements the on-screen action.
