Queen of Earth
Directed by Alex Ross Perry
Shaken by her father's death and a difficult breakup, Catherine retreats to the lakeside cabin of her friend Virginia in an attempt to heal. But their once-strong friendship begins to strain, with the constant presence of boy-next-door Rich further amplifying the simmering tension between the women.
Two women retreat to a cabin, where simmering tension and psychological breaks threaten to boil over.
Cast: Elisabeth Moss, Katherine Waterston, Patrick Fugit, Kentucker Audley, Keith Poulson

I mean minus the absolute mental decline, I've been in this exact situation when my friend's new fling moved himself into our apartment and I WISH I had had the guts to say what she did πππ
i could relate to this one
I love Elizabeth Moss but have to say I wasn't a fan of this one
very arty and well acted. Good background music. Lots of tension that goes nowhere.
the bad reviews here are from impatient people, looking for a cheap horror. This is a great character study piece with some genuinely unsettling scenes, representing the horrors of mental illness and feeling isolated. (i don't see why shudder can't have psychological thrillers/horrors that require some thought and concentration as well as the bog standard no-brainer cheap horrors that rely on jump scares and gore - a quick google of the title will inform you of what sort of film you're about to watch)
