For the teenager, Rain Burroughs, played by Madison Iseman, becomes caught in the synthetic psychiatric mumbo-jumbo of labeling and being diagnosed with made-up illness schizophrenia.
I look forward to the day where filmmakers can create a character, going through difficulties and horror without cookie cutting a psychiatric label. It’s lazy writing — without imagination. For example, Harry Potter grew up not knowing he was a wizard and had out-of-the-ordinary things happen around him, but did Rowlings label him or send him to a psychiatrist, no. She wrote a legendary story about a tough childhood, being different, having loyal friends, and saving the world.
Written and directed by Castille Landon, Rain struggles as she tries to figure out which of the disturbing images, harrowing voices, and traumatic feelings she experiences are real and which are all in her mind.
But when Rain goes against her parents, played by Katherine Heigl and Harry Connick, Jr., as they advise her. The shadows and cries from her neighbor’s attic appear to hide a dark secret. She enlists help from Caleb, played by Israel Broussard, the charmingly awkward new boy at school — who himself may not be real.
The movie is a terrifying thriller that takes you inside Rain’s mind as she confronts the frightening hallucinations of her imagination to determine whether there is genuine horror hiding right next door.
Also starring in the movie are Israel Broussard and Eugenie Bondurant.
Directed by Deon Taylor, Fatale may fall into being like the 1987 film Fatal Attraction, starring Michael Douglas and Glenn Close — never scorn a woman.
