The Folks is a 2022 psychological horror movie about Mary, a grieving widow who welcomes her estranged in-laws into her home after her husband’s death – only to unleash a terrifying evil that threatens her family.
Synopsis: After her husband’s funeral, Mary is approached by his mother and brother – two strangers cloaked in grief and unsettling kindness. Their sudden appearance feels peculiar, but Mary brushes it off, attributing their oddities to shared loss. They offer unwavering support, their actions tinged with an unnerving intensity she can’t quite place. Yet beneath their consoling façade lies something far darker – secrets and malevolent intentions that quietly circle her and her young son, Tony. Subtle signs of their true nature surface: a misplaced heirloom, a too-knowing glance, a question that cuts too close. However, Mary, blinded by sorrow, fails to see the growing storm. As their sinister agenda unfolds, Mary will face a chilling truth: the greatest threat to her family isn’t from the outside world – it’s already inside her home.
