Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who enjoys a good scare and anyone who loves a strong drama, this one's for you. One to watch when you can give it your full attention. Fans of Repulsion should feel right at home.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 47 min. The story isn't told in order, so keep your phone down.
What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1969: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Following the death of his female cousin Marija, Moma sets out to her house where only her aunt lives. The old woman remembers Marija's awkward temper that left her unmarried and even led to a suicide of one of her courters. Based on a novel written by Momčilo Nastasijević.
