In a sea of forgettable thrillers dumped on streaming platforms, a handful of films survive the streaming curse and are still being released in theaters with the same quality as these made-for-streaming films. For the case of ‘The Housemaid,’ while scenes from this film are something you would see posted over and over again on Facebook reels or TikTok, and the film’s ‘Gone Girl’-esque approach was done way too many times now, there’s a charm to this film that makes it worthy to sit through.
