This movie is undeniably well crafted but it didn't particularly click with me. Perhaps it requires a rewatch in order to hit the mark, but it was not striking enough to make want to revisit it.
A quiet family is upset by the arrival of an old acquaintance whose nasty personality slowly seeps throughout the household. I've found the acting generally solid, especially Glover who plays his character so naturally that it feels unintentionally evil.
It feels a bit too dragged towards the end, and the whole figurative thing of the mutual exclusion between father and acquaintance seems a bit of a stretch, but I wouldn't pan this film too much.
