Victorian Psycho, directed by Zachary Wigon, is a horror film that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 21. Adapted from Virginia Feito's novel, it features Maika Monroe as Winifred Knotty, a quirky governess with a chilling past. The film is marked by its blend of dark humor and gruesome horror, showcasing Winifred's unsettling charm as she navigates the eerie dynamics of the Pound family, played by Jason Isaacs and Ruth Wilson. The narrative reveals Winifred's complex character, who is both a murderer and a victim of her circumstances, as she grapples with her past and the bizarre expectations of her employers. The film's comedic elements, such as absurd dialogues and shocking scenarios, create a unique viewing experience that is both disturbing and entertaining. With a runtime of 1 hour and 30 minutes, Victorian Psycho promises to be a twisted gothic romp rather than a straightforward horror film. It is set for a US release on September 25, while the UK release is anticipated for 2026.
