    A daft pitch-black dark comedy about family dysfunction that plays out over painfully ugly family Christmas celebration.

    Characters this nicely etched deserve a more complete conclusion.

    The more difficult characters here (all female) and resulting character dynamics are so consistently shrill that the picture feels a bit too one-dimensional and cruel to leave the small-tragedy aftertaste it could have.

    Mostly the movie just gets off on how awful and/or pathetic its characters are, calling on the viewer to judge or pity rather than sympathize with its gallery of grotesques.
