Jim Mickle has my vote for the most interesting new voice in American horror and We Are What We Are (eOne, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital), his third feature, is his most accomplished and compelling film yet. It’s a remake of a Spanish feature of the same name but Mickle makes the drama of a family of cannibals into a distinctly American feature and, like his previous film Stakeland, puts the focus not on the horror but on the characters struggling with the pressures to carry on a horrifying family tradition.
It arrives on Blu-ray and DVD from eOne this week, with cast and crew commentary, interviews with director Jim Mickle and actors Bill Sage and Julia Garner, and the featurette “An Acquired Taste: The Making of We Are What We Are.”
It’s available from Amazon and other retailers, but one lucky reader can win a free Blu-ray from Cinephiled and eOne.
