Marcus is a fairly creepy little flick that takes place at Christmas time, and no one will feel in a festive mood while watching nor afterward, believe me. Brooke was apparently planning a Christmas get-together for her estranged family & friends, and one thing she didn't count on was Marcus. And who the hell IS Marcus, anyway? Well, apparently he's not very nice and doesn't really like Brooke too much, otherwise she wouldn't be tied up in her bathtub after having her head smacked against the tile wall. But Marcus has gone out for a few things at the store, and while he's gone the guests have arrived and are quite surprised to find this stranger in their midst, as they had no inkling that dear Brooke had a boyfriend. Now, for the most part none of the guests are exactly too enamored with each other's company, and Roger has showed up with his new fiancée and wasn't expecting his ex-girlfriend Kim to be there, etc. etc. No festive holiday mood here, and absolutely no peace on earth, except perhaps for Brooke, who has now had her throat ripped out by Marcus. Are you starting to get the idea that Marcus is a psycho and that there's something quite sinister going on here? And that these dinner guests have wandered into something far worse than a family squabble? This film has a rather claustrophobic feel to it, and considering it's the holiday season I guess you might call it "cosy", that is, if there wasn't so much animosity and if the atmosphere wasn't so filled with dread. This is effectively creepy but it's also rather short and sweet and doesn't give certain things time to develop, but on the other hand it does not overstay its welcome like some other films, either. 7 out of 10, check it out.
