The Seasoning House is a British horror-thriller film released in 2012 and directed by Paul Hyett. The film is set in Eastern Europe during the Balkan War, where young girls are kidnapped by a group of soldiers and brought to a brothel known as the "Seasoning House". The girls are forced to work as prostitutes and drug addicts, with no hope of escape.
The main character of the film is Angel, a young girl who was abducted by the soldiers and forced to work at the brothel. She is also a deaf mute, which sets her apart from the other girls and makes her the subject of cruel jokes and taunts by the soldiers.
Despite her communication barriers, Angel forms a bond with another girl named Vanya, who is also a captive at the brothel. Angel discovers that she is able to move between the walls and crawlspaces of the house, allowing her to observe the soldiers and their activities without being seen.
As she plans her escape, Angel witnesses the brutal murder of Vanya by one of the soldiers. This event triggers Angel's desire for revenge, and she begins to execute a plan that involves killing the soldiers one by one.
Angel's revenge is ingeniously brutal, with the use of various weapons and the manipulation of the house's structure to trap and kill the soldiers. The film has a dark and gruesome atmosphere, with violent and disturbing scenes that highlight the terrible plight of the girls at the Seasoning House.
The Seasoning House is a disturbing and intense film that sheds light on the horrors of war and sexual exploitation. Despite its difficult subject matter, the film received critical acclaim for its strong performances, cinematography, and direction.
