I give this film 8/10 for the atmosphere and the fact that although not a classic horror/no jump scares the atmosphere is so creepy and the ending so unsettling it makes for a great watching experience. I still have a few unanswered questions but so far this is the best I've seen this year

I am so tired of horror movies where the characters move to a new house and walk in dark corridors for 80 minutes. What's that sound? Oh it's a washing machine. It doesn't matter. What's that sound? Oh it's just grandma being a weirdo. Go to bed grandma. What's that-- It's all a meaningless barrage of random nonsense. We need the first 80 minutes of the movie to get to the actual reason why this movie was made - the pretentious last 10 minutes. Just release that allegory for dementia/depression as a stand alone short film and don't waste my time with filler.

I didn't really know what to expect when I sat down to watch "Relic" from writers Natalie Erika James and Christian White, aside from it being a horror movie of sorts. And a horror movie was all that was needed to make me sit down and watch this 2020 movie. Well, now that the movie has finished, I must admit that I am left with an overwhelming sense of 'was that really it'' and a feeling of having sat through an ordeal that felt like 5 hours and not just an hour and 29 minutes. Yeah, this movie was incredibly slow paced. And it wasn't really before 1 hour and 10 minutes into the ordeal before anything even remotely worthwhile happened. And by that time, it simply was too late; I had grown severely bored with the storyline. And with less than 20 minutes left of the movie, I can't say that the events that transpired then were enough to make up for the previous 70 minutes of slow paced torture. Now, I will say that the acting in the movie was really, really good, especially by actress Robyn Nevin - she really carried the movie phenomenally with her performance. It was just a shame that the storyline was such a mundane drag to get through. It should be noted, however, that there is a great atmosphere throughout the movie, one that the film makers were able to maintain throughout the course of the entire movie. Visually, "Relic" was adequate. Now, it wasn't an outstanding movie by any means. But I did like the make-up effects in the closing segment of the movie. But again, it was too little, too late. There is a good production value to the movie, if that matters on any account or level. I am rating it a mere three out of ten stars, and I do feel slightly generous here actually. I wasn't particularly impressed with "Relic" and it was just simply way too uneventful for my liking. This is by no means a movie that I will be returning to watch again.

Granma gets lost in the woods. Daughter looks for her. Granma comes back after 3 days. Absolutely nothing happenes next 2 weeks. Granddaughter drops LSD and start tripping in the house. Granma attacks everyone with a knife but gets her ass kicked instead. Daughter forgets about the bad LSD trip instantly and acts like nothing happened. Granma turns into an alien mummy. Everybody fall asleep because it was a busy day. Still better than the Last Jedi.

Go make a horror movie, gurl. Don't use any lights on set, and make pointless metaphors about old age and neglect. That'll surely scare people! And yes, Don't reveal what's the big mystery because it's "deep, just like The Babadook". Utter Trash. Thankfully, IMDb ratings/reviews will save us from paid/clueless Metascore.
