WITH EMMY AWARD-WINNING LEAD ACTRESS JULIA ORMOND
A pregnant woman returns to her recently-deceased grandparents’ old family home to spend time with her estranged mother. What begins as a tenuous reunion slowly turns terrifying.
A psychological thriller that preys upon perception, Reunion sees veteran actress Julia Ormond deliver a tour-de-force performance of threateningly quiet intensity and features a twisty narrative that will burrow itself into the darkest corners of your mind.

“THE PERFORMANCES FROM THESE TWO ACTRESSES ARE FANTASTIC. YOU CAN CUT THE TENSION WITH A KNIFE. AND THAT’S JUST IN THE FIRST SCENE. 90 MINUTES LATER, YOU WILL NEED A CHAINSAW.”
– DAILY DEAD
“PAIRS WELL WITH CONTEMPORARIES LIKE ARI ASTER’S HEREDITARY, JENNIFER KENT’S THE BABADOOK, AND NATALIE ERIKA JAMES’ RELIC. IT’S INCISIVE, OBSERVANT, AND MAKES ITS CHARACTERS EARN THEIR CATHARSIS.”
– CYNAPSE
“REUNION IS A BALEFULLY BRUISING AND UNSHAKABLY SINISTER TALE.”
– JOBLO’S ARROW IN THE HEAD
