Set in Victorian England, the raucous horror-comedy follows Winifred Notty (Monroe), who arrives at a remote gothic manor where strange happenings stir suspicion that she’s not what she seems.
Thomasin McKenzie (Last Night in Soho), Jason Isaacs (Honey Bunch), Ruth Wilson, Amy De Bruhn, and “Hamnet” breakout Jacobi Jupe also star.
Zachary Wigon (Sanctuary) directed the film from a script by author Virginia Feito (Mrs. March), based on her novel of the same name. Victorian Psycho is produced by Dan Kagan (Longlegs) and Sebastien Raybaud (Greenland: Migration).
Maika Monroe turns in another unforgettable performance, this time as an unhinged psychopath unleashed upon a stuffy society.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Carnage becomes pretty dang delightful in Monroe’s capable hands. Victorian Psycho operates on familiar slay grounds, but it’s an absolute blast thanks to its zany style and deranged sense of fun.”
Wigon previously said of his lead, “Maika’s intense screen presence has resonated with me over and over again throughout her history of complex performances. I’m absolutely thrilled for her to bring her unique style of psychological portraiture to the fascinatingly bizarre Winifred Notty.”
Victorian Psycho is rated ‘R’ for “strong bloody violence and brief sexual material.” That’s certainly teased in the final trailer below, which gives away some of Winifred’s slaughter.
