PLOT SYNOPSIS


For her entire life, the cult she was born into has been all that teenage Selah (RAFFEY CASSIDY) has known. Along with a band of similarly cloistered young women she lives seemingly unstuck in time, cut off from modern society in a remote forest commune presided over by a man called Shepherd (MICHIEL HUISMAN), a controlling, messiah-like figure with a frightening dark side. But when her insular world is rocked by a series of nightmarish visions and disturbing revelations, Selah begins to question everything about her existence—including her allegiance to the increasingly dangerous Shepherd.

 

SPECIAL FEATURES – 0.5/5


The only feature is the film’s Trailer.

 


VIDEO – 4.0/5


The Other Lamb arrives on Blu-ray presented with a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. For the most part the picture here looks pretty good, detail is decent especially on close-up shots while the more distant ones get a bit softer. Colors are on the more muted side but the Irish countryside still beautifully shows off on the smaller screen.

AUDIO – 3.75/5


The disc includes a basic DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 which is a little stronger than expected given the bulk of this is either atmospheric ambient noises within the forest or strictly dialogue coming via the center channel.
