An unusual and often hauntingly strange film, Angelica is given life thanks to Jena Malone’s impressive performance, which juggles mounting hysteria with a gentle sense of passion.
Queer writer-director Mitchell Lichtenstein (the mind behind the vagina dentata horror-comedy Teeth) and an impressive team of collaborators inspire laughs and/or terror out of the libidinal hang-ups of frail stay-at-home mom Constance (Jena Malone) and her unfulfilled spouse, Joseph (Ed Stoppard).
This is an alternately handsome and harrowing ghost story, about a civilized society haunted by its own unspeakable needs.
Fear of the supernatural ties directly into a fear of the unknown, but with no doubt surrounding the spiritual aspects going on, Angelica becomes a film more invested in its own ideas than executing them properly.
The supernatural elements brush up against some heavy topics, some actual real-life horrors, but like any encounter with a ghost, Angelica is likely to simply leave you cold.
