The Interior
Why this pick
Like Resolution, it turns a troubled man’s retreat into remote wilderness into a patient, disorienting psychological descent with an unsettlingly intimate scale.
03
The Invitation
Why this pick
A controlled gathering becomes increasingly wrong through social discomfort, grief, and carefully rationed information—ideal for Resolution’s preference for dread over spectacle.

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
Michael Danube, a professional graphic designer who lives in the city with his wife, receives an email that contains a video of Chris Daniels, his former best friend. Chris has become a junkie, retreated to Boondocks, and his behavior is delusional and erratic. A map is included with the video. Despite the objections of his wife, Michael decides to make one last attempt to save his friend from drug addiction. Michael promises to return after one week and follows the map to a run-down house, where he hears Chris ranting and shooting a pistol. Michael cautiously approaches the house and announces himself. Chris reacts positively and invites him in, ranting about various subjects. Michael tries to convince Chris to go to rehab, but Chris refuses. Michael uses a Electroshock weapon to stun Chris and handcuffs him to a pipe. When Michael returns from a shopping trip, he sees Chris trying to cut through his handcuff with a toothbrush. In the morning, Michael uses the stun gun again to stave off an attempted attack by Chris.
