Delaware Shore (2018)


Could have been interesting if it hadn't been so terrible, or if it had been terrible in a different way.

A Holocaust survivor is stuck bringing up her two grandchildren who she abuses. She addresses her gay grandson as "Mr Faggot" and screams at her granddaughter that her poetry is worthless because she can't eat it.

It wasn't entirely clear, but she wasn't so much a Holocaust survivor as she was a Nazi---either a regular Nazi or a kapo. Other reviews withheld that bit of information, but I think it's more teaser than spoiler. She kills a couple people and has a handyman take care of the bodies.

Important lesson here is that your movie will never be "so bad it's good" if it contains concentration camp footage.

Nicely photographed. 98 minutes.

Available on Tubi and Amazon Prime.
