Marrowbone is the stuff of nightmares. Ghosts in the attic? Check. Absent parents? Check. Blackmail? Check. Old, eerie family home? Check. This is the movie to watch if a solid plot and jumpscares are what you’re looking for.
I wouldn’t say Marrowbone comes in with a brand-new plot. Kids left to fend for themselves and strange noises in the attic are elements we’ve seen before in many horror movies, but this one comes with a twist that you’ll only discover in the last twenty minutes of the movie.
