5/10
microdosed
4 April 2023
Rebecca (Kat Foster) hires Millicent (Morgan Saylor) to care for her troubled son Johnny who is apparently allergic to everything. Almost immediately, Millicent is sexually obsessed with Rebecca's husband Jacob (Myko Olivier). It turns out that she's having sexually disturbed hallucinations brought about from LSD micro-dosing prescripted by Dr. Welsh (Keith Powell). Welsh is reducing her dosage, but Millicent has other ideas.

This is made by Shudder. Blumhouse has made a business out of movies like this except they would get a bigger star for the lead. That's the largest missing ingredient. Morgan is fine for the role, but I don't know where she's been. There is no excitement of seeing a Disney star trying to grow or a big movie star slumming it. It's an unknown actress doing fine work. I would also like it a more straight horror. With the hallucinations, this is more psychological surreal and sexually disturbing. It's messier. Some may like it. I like something cleaner.
