The Nest is a long-awaited and brilliant follow-up from Durkin, who emerged in 2011 with his filmmaking debut, Martha Marcy May Marlene, but hadn’t directed a movie since.
But in this case, it’s not the house that’s the problem-it’s the family, and the greedy quest for status that first led them to this gargantuan manor. The movie, directed by Sean Durkin, opens with appropriate portentousness, a discordant piano score clanging over the title card. The setup is familiar for a horror film: A happy couple buys a mysterious property and discovers, upon arrival, that something is terribly wrong with the house.
In The Nest, a family moves into an English mansion in the countryside filled with opulent rooms, creaky staircases, and secret passages.
