Clawfoot is a thrilling new take on the home invasion genre. Director Michael Day’s feature debut is a darkly comedic and suspenseful ride that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

The film follows a seemingly ordinary woman who finds herself trapped in a terrifying ordeal when a contractor hired to renovate her bathroom turns out to be a menacing stalker. Francesca Eastwood delivers a standout performance as the strong-willed protagonist, showcasing her ability to balance vulnerability with fierce determination. Milo Gibson is as compelling as the sinister antagonist, creating a chilling, unhinged villain.

Supporting cast members Olivia Culpo, Oliver Cooper, and Nestor Carbonell help bring the humor to the surface while displaying intensity in their roles.

Be prepared for a thrilling twist about midway through that turns the story on its head, revealing the characters in a whole new light. This is when things get bloody brutal.

With its unexpected twists, sharp dialogue, dark humor, and well-paced action, Clawfoot is a refreshing addition to the thriller genre. Day’s confident direction and talented cast make the film a must-watch for suspense and thriller fans. If this movie is an indication of the director’s talent, with this being his debut, I have a feeling we will see many more films from him that are as entertaining as this one.
