BETWEEN WORLDS

Cinemavixion Review

Maria Pulera's 2018 film, "Between Worlds," delves into the supernatural with a compelling, albeit unsettling, premise. Starring Nicolas Cage as Joe, a grieving truck driver haunted by the loss of his wife and child, the narrative takes a dark turn when he becomes entangled with Julie (Franka Potente), a woman seeking to save her comatose daughter, Billie (Penelope Mitchell). The true horror unfolds as the spirit of Joe's deceased wife possesses Billie, bringing her unfinished business to the earthly realm. While the film's reception, reflected in its Metacritic score of 24/100 and IMDb rating of 3.9/10, suggests a challenging viewing experience, its unique blend of psychological torment and supernatural thriller elements offers a distinctive exploration of grief, possession, and the lingering ties that bind us to the living.
