1920, rural Ireland. Anglo-Irish twins Rachel and Edward share a strange existence in their crumbling family estate. Each night, the property becomes the domain of a sinister presence (The Lodgers) which enforces three rules upon the twins: they must be in bed by midnight; they may not permit an outsider past the threshold; and if one attempts to escape, the life of the other is placed in jeopardy. When troubled war veteran Sean returns to the nearby village, he is immediately drawn to the mysterious Rachel, who in turn begins to break the rules set out by The Lodgers. The consequences pull Rachel into a deadly confrontation with her brother - and with the curse that haunts them.
Director: Brian O'Malley
Cast: Charlotte Vega, Bill Milner, Eugene Simon, David Bradley, Moe Dunford, Deirdre O'Kane, Roisin Murphy, Anthony Murphy
Gimly - 4/10
Without spoilers, _The Lodgers_ overall takes a format that I have seen a lot in the past couple of years, it's a schematic that I was never the biggest fan of in the first place, and _The Lodgers_ certainly is not the best of the bunch that have approached this sort of material in recent times. _Final rating:★★ - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal._
