COBWEB (2023) **1/2 Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr, Cleopatra Coleman, Woody Norman, Luke Busey, Aleksandra Dragova. Disjointed domestic horror film about a troubled boy (a fine Norman) who discovers a terrifying family secret when he begins to hear noises within his home's walls that unfold ultimately into a deeper, more disturbing web of lies and deceit. While the acting is uniformly strong and Samuel Bodin's affective direction is sturdy the screenplay by Chris Thomas Devlin ends its final act rather abruptly with far too many questions than answers. Echoes of BARBARIAN, MALEVOLENT and THE SHINING.
