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.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at zombie fans and anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone). The undead are the backdrop; how people treat each other is the real story. Shelve it next to Grindhouse or 28 Weeks Later. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 32 min.
- What might put you off
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Jake's Closet takes you back through childhood in a suspenseful and deeply moving story that dives deep into the mind of a little boy under the stress of a fractured family.
