The Loved Ones (2009)

Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken?

This week we’re talking Sean Byrne’s debut film—an Australian “prom” horror that moves along at a clip and cuts you up as it goes. We’ve got daddy issues, outdated pop-country radio hits, and DIY The Descent creatures.

Throw on your pinkest, poofiest dress, pin that corsage, and gird your loins for The Loved Ones.
