OUT OF THE BOX: Went Up The Hill

Went Up The Hill, directed by Samuel Van Grinsven, is a haunting psychological thriller that blurs the line between reality and the supernatural. When gay Jack, a young man seeking answers about his past, travels to remote New Zealand for his estranged mother’s funeral, he finds himself drawn into a world of eerie visions and unsettling family secrets. As he becomes entangled with Jill, his mother’s widow, the boundary between love and obsession fractures. With atmospheric cinematography and an eerie, slow-burning tension, Went Up The Hill is a chilling exploration of grief, identity, and the ghosts—both real and imagined—that haunt us.
