That last one is the closest to this film because it trades on the same paranoia that comes from becoming a helpless senior in one of these homes.

The proposal with Barbara Hershey as the lead, and with a story that takes place in a nursing home, sounded pretty good, but The Manor makes the mistake that even with its short duration, it takes a long time to tackle its twist, and when you find out about it, it's very late, because the way in which the concept is brought to life is quite boring, and it's far away from any horror perception.

At its climax, it becomes almost a comedy, both for the bad performances and for how painful it feels in terms of resolutions. What a waste.… Expand

Harmless "Dorian Gray" lacking in inventiveness. That's all.
