"Other Mommy" Is Silly, But Entertaining

Photo by Racheal Lomas. HOLLYWOOD—I was surprised by this thriller because I heard from so many it was a terrible movie. I’m referring to the horror flick, “Other Mommy” which is already available to stream after only being in theaters for a month. Is this the greatest thriller I have ever seen? Not a chance, but I was more entertained than I suspect, but the movie does have a few loopholes that were overlooked. This flick stars Oscar-winner, Jessica Chastain, as Ursula Martin, a mother, who finds herself and the visual threat that is tormenting her daughter, Bela (Arabella Olivia Clark). Bela is precocious and unaware that this entity, which is actually a demon, is not befriending Bela, but attempting to find a way to carnate into Bela’s orbit and take part of her life. “Other Mommy” does something that I appreciate for a psychological thriller. It doesn’t have a bevy of characters who are complete idiots. They know what is going on and they are tackling that danger head on.
