I can confidently say that I did not see the end of Delicious coming.
But I am here to implore you to add this German flick to your Netflix watchlist.
The movie arrives on Netflix this week (Friday, March 7) and its the perfect weekend watch.
What is Delicious about?
Over the next few weeks, the woman, named Teodora, becomes increasingly intertwined with the family.
Meanwhile, the family’s two children also become infatuated with Teodora.
However, this young woman has arrived on the scene to do more than cook fancy meals.
As the situation escalates, her dark intentions are revealed.
Teodoras integration within the wealthy family is absorbing, particularly when its obvious her motivations arent harmless.
Right from the start, you know something much darker is afoot.
Carla Diaz does a fantastic job in the movies most vital role.
Unfortunately, Delicious falls into the common trap of its characters making illogical decisions a little too often.
And it is that finale that leaves things on a memorably chilling note.
Plus, you really wont forget the closing moments for a long time after watching.
What writer/director Nele Mueller-Stofen has nailed in Delicious is that ever-increasing sense of dread.
From the opening act, it is obvious there are deeper secrets at play.
Teodora definitely isnt just on the scene to make some money over the summer.
That sense of mystery, and suspense, will carry you through the entire movie.
Plus, there are some very pretty shots of the French countryside which are enjoyable as visual tourism.
It definitely deserves your attention.
Its an unsettling dark thriller that keeps you guessing until the closing moments.
And I bet you wont be able to predict the ending.
If youre looking for weekend watches, I encourage you to make space for Delicious.
Though, fair warning, you won’t want to be eating any movie snacks by the end.
Its stomach-turning finale will put you off your food.
Not a fan of warped tales, and think Delicious might not be for you?
