The Voices is a psychological thriller/horror film directed by Wesley Alley. The movie follows Grace Crawford (Amanda Markowitz), a young woman who recently broke up with her fiancé and seeks refuge at her sister Catherine's (Victoria Matlock) remote home in the mountains. Catherine is portrayed as a paranoid schizophrenic who believes that someone is constantly watching her. Initially, Grace tries to help her sister cope with her illness, but soon discovers that there may be more to Catherine's fears than mere delusions.
As the story unfolds, Grace begins to experience strange and terrifying events that prompt her to question her own sanity. She also uncovers a dark family secret that has been hiding in plain sight for years. The tension gradually builds as Grace realizes that she and her sister may be in danger from an unknown and malevolent presence in the house.
The film uses a combination of jump scares, atmospheric tension, and gruesome imagery to keep the audience on edge throughout. The performances of the two leads are noteworthy, with Amanda Markowitz delivering a sympathetic and engaging portrayal of a woman struggling to cope with the traumas of her past. Victoria Matlock, on the other hand, is convincingly unpredictable and erratic in her portrayal of a woman whose grip on reality is slipping away.
At its core, The Voices is a disturbing exploration of the psychological impact of trauma and mental illness. It is a tense and unsettling film that will appeal to horror fans who enjoy nuanced character-driven stories.
