Relic director Natalie Erika James discusses the relationship between hard truths and horror in her newest film.
Watching your loved ones fall apart on the road to their passing is a very specific kind of horror. Where they once brimmed with life, they now unravel, and the person you knew becomes someone else, nigh unrecognizable from your memories of them. That’s the motivating factor of Natalie Erika James’, an existential crisis about Kay and her daughter, Sam , moving in with Kay’s mom, Edna , who suffers from a form of dementia .
But I also encourage different interpretations of the material. That’s always really fascinating, what people take away from it, especially in horror, where the things that are scary to you are rooted in your own mythology, in your own upbringing, and what scares you as a kid. It’s so subjective and so personal, which is wonderful.That’s one of the reasons why I love horror so much.
