Pascal Laugier, the French Canadian writer & director of the extremely disturbing Martyrs, returns to the screen with a dark and gloomy film that sets out to haunt again.
The Tall Man is a twist-filled mystery/thriller that keeps you guessing right up until the end, making sure your emotions are taken for a unsettling ride all along the way. What took me off guard was Jessica Biel's ability to carry the film with an emotionally and physically demanding performance. The focus gets a little out of hand and the dialogue is klunky at moments but with some moody atmosphere, amazing camera work and mesmerizing music, The Tall Man delivers the goods.
