The Reckoning (2021, D: Neil Marshall) S: Charlotte Kirk



THE RECKONING In Theaters, On Demand and Digital HD February 5

Starring Charlotte Kirk, Joe Anderson, Steven Waddington and Sean Pertwee
Written by Neil Marshall, Charlotte Kirk and Edward Evers-Swindell
Directed by Neil Marshall

After losing her husband during the Great Plague, Grace Haverstock (Charlotte Kirk) is unjustly accused of being a witch and placed in the custody of England’s most ruthless witch-hunter, Judge Moorcroft (Sean Pertwee). Forced to endure physical and emotional torture while steadfastly maintaining her innocence, Grace must face her own inner demons as the Devil himself starts to work his way into her mind.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9182964

This came out last month. It was originally greenlit back in 2018 via MoviePass Films.

Some interesting backstory here... The woman in this, who is now Marshall's girlfriend, was the woman in the middle of affair scandals that made both Warner Bros. chairman, Kevin Tsujihara, and NBCUniversal Vice Chairman, Ron Meyer, step down from their roles.

Once Marshall got involved with her, and those stories came out, it seemed like he had some turmoil in his career as well.

Yup. Per the article I posted...
"At that point, sources say, Marshall proclaimed that he would devote himself entirely to making movies with Kirk."

This is a summary of Kirk's adventures in Hollywoodland: https://www.lamag.com/mag-features/c...irk-interview/

It reads like a story from the "Golden Era" of old Hollywood.

I’ve never heard of Charlotte Kirk. I looked her up and it looks like she’s been in a handful of those shitty straight-to-video Bruce Willis movies.

I had some rental credits and gave this a shot.

In the past, I’d consider Marshall one of the best working genre directors. This felt shockingly amateurish.
