FILM OF THE WEEK The Owners

Amazon Prime

Adapted from Hermann and Yves H’s graphic novel Une Nuit De Pleine Lune, The Owners is a twisted home invasion thriller, which ramps up the gore by delivering blunt force trauma to one woebegotten character in stomach-churning close-up. Nathan, best mate Terry and their pal Gaz stake out the home of Dr Richard Huggins (Sylvester Mccoy) and his wife Ellen, who run a community practice from their ramshackle country pile. The three young men intend to break in and plunder the elderly couple’s electronic safe.

The best laid plans of three hapless thieves are derailed by the unexpected arrival of Nathan’s girlfriend who needs her car back so she can get to work.

She becomes embroiled in the bungled robbery and witnesses Nathan threatening to cut off the fingers of Mr Huggins with a Stanley knife unless her husband reveals the safe’s combination. Before long blood starts to flow freely as the protagonists kill with kindness in the name of survival.

Fans of the diabolical 2016 horror Don’t Breathe, which will give birth to a sequel later this year, will secondguess the script’s gnarly narrative beats, which gleefully upend polite assumptions.
