6.5/10 IMDb
Drama,Horror,MysteryIt's certainly not lacking for visual splendour and unique ambition, but Lamb is a film that has such an overinflated sense of self-importance yet has so little to actually say.
It's not that I don't understand the film-I do. The primary theme of the story is the notion that people will accept and embrace some truly bizarre, unsettling things in order to alleviate their grief and start anew. It's just that this story is really stupid.
