Paramount+ subscribers should hasten to their couches with their largest bowls of popcorn and funniest friends. It is wonderfully impossible to take this film seriously, meaning it’s best enjoyed with others. Yes, it is problematic (see: playing fast and loose with the concept of dwarfism), but it also takes place in an alternate universe where rich kids have flip phones and dour therapists have parrots. This transgressive, ghoulish stuff is what makes the genre fantastic, and “First Kill” gives its protagonist a final chapter that fits her freakishness. This film is hardly scary - you can see every kill coming from a mile away - but it is still unquestionably horror.

To explain the delights of “Orphan: First Kill” in full would require spoilers, but know that those delights are many, at least if you’ve got the requisite sick sense of humor. But “First Kill” owes an enormous hat tip to Julia Stiles, whose stellar, icy performance sells some of the film’s most ludicrous moments with aplomb.

This may be on purpose: Bell’s “The Boy,” about two old, wealthy creeps who treat a large doll like their human son, is another modern camp classic, and Coggeshall wrote for MTV’s very meta “Scream” TV series. Why Paramount+ Needs to Look for New Frontiers to Compete in the Streaming Wars | Chartsīell and Coggeshall have made a film that feels cognizant of its own silliness. The film is poised to play out just like the first, especially since we know Esther must live through this story undiscovered in order for “Orphan” to happen. In their first scene, they watch their son, Gunnar (Matthew Finlan, “My Fake Boyfriend”), win a fencing tournament. It seems like she’s hit the jackpot: Her new parents, Tricia (Julia Stiles) and Allen (Rossif Sutherland, “Possessor”), are old-money Connecticut residents. Her grief-stricken new family is all too willing to believe her outlandish story.
She covers up the scars from her hospitalization with her signature ribbons and explains away her eastern European accent by saying she was kidnapped and taken to Russian. (Fingers crossed for an “Orphan: First Kill 2 - The Firstest Kill.”)Īfter breaking out of Saarne, Leena adopts the persona of Esther Albright, a missing American girl. Her “first kill” actually took place before the film even started she got to Saarne by joining a family and then murdering them. Our tiny killer, Leena (Isabelle Fuhrman, “The Novice”), is locked in the Saarne Institute in her native Estonia. The film takes place in 2007, before the events of “Orphan.” If you’ve seen the original film, the first half of “First Kill” is numbing in its predictability.
