The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, is a chilling psychological thriller rooted in myth and moral dread. Colin Farrell plays a surgeon whose seemingly perfect life unravels when a strange teenage boy enters his world. With eerie dialogue, haunting stillness, and surgical precision, the film builds unbearable tension. It’s a modern Greek tragedy—cold, calculated, and deeply unsettling. A disturbing meditation on guilt, justice, and the price of sacrifice.
