The Rule of Jenny Pen

This movie is weird and gross at times but I laughed quite a bit and overall enjoyed it.

3.9 - Had to break the hot streak eventually.

This just doesn’t have much going for it outside John Lithgow acting fully unhinged & Geoffrey Rush providing a decent foil.

It never fully commits to its psych horror elements. It leaves a few unanswered or at least unsatisfactorily answered questions. It never takes its geronotophobic angles to their limits (think The Front Room). What little it does have, that pulled me in early, fizzles by the second half & then drags on down the stretch.

It’s just some mildly gross & some mildly creepy. And it’s all too easily solved if even one worker did like 20% better at their jobs.

It started off creepy and mysterious but quickly turned into a very weird battle between two old men. I prefer lithgow as trinity, not as Jenny Pen. It has potential but it didn’t hit the mark for me.

A Psychological bore that extends its tedious abuse on the elderly to its audience.
