SYDNEY: Thousands of Australians joined pro-Palestinian rallies on Sunday (Aug 24), organisers said, amid strained relations between Israel and Australia following the centre-left government's decision to recognise a Palestinian state.

It’s never a good thing when a creepy-looking kid in a horror film opens a window in a dark room. — Photos: HandoutCast: Josh Brolin , Julia Garner , Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Cary Christopher, Benedict Wong, Amy Madiganopens with a mystery that sounds like a math word problem: If 17 children left their homes and disappeared at 2.17 in the morning, and there’s only one kid and one teacher left in their classroom – who is to blame? Because someone has to be at fault.

The entire film is a masterpiece of camera blocking and long, unyielding shots that wind through the town of Maybrook with these characters. Archer, a building contractor with an anger problem, decides to problem-solve his son’s disappearance with the tools at his disposal. Neither he nor Justine are entirely trustworthy, but through dogged determination, they find the cracks and chase them down.

In casting, he peppers the ensemble with comedy stars in supporting roles, such as June Diane Raphael, Whitmer Thomas and Clayton Farris, who add to the absurd and inexplicable atmosphere. Meanwhile, Abrams might deliver the best and most compellingly authentic performance of the entire company.
