The 5-minute thriller opens as Elena greets Annie at her home. Elena initially empathizes with Annie, who reveals she lives alone after the death of her husband. Annie is also childless – but always wanted the perfect daughter. Upon touring the home, Elena is alarmed by a distressing scream from inside the house. She is quickly captured upon escape and the owner’s real intensions are revealed.
Visually, the short outshines many horror thrillers – with outstanding cinematography, sound and lighting. The film is set entirely within one location – the house – which sets an eerie tone from the get-go. Laurel Brower’s performance as Elena is commendable – she delivers authentic empathy to the audience. Isabelle Garbani (Annie) steels the film with her disturbing portrayal that is certain to keep the audience engaged. ‘The Perfect Daughter’ is a truly splendid horror/thriller that holds a strong narrative and captivating story. A highly recommended short film.
