Synopsis

Set in 18th century England during pox outbreak and Jacobite uprising, Sir Chauncey and Lady Savage blindly pursue better life. Their pursuit filled with ironic decadence and bloodshed. A darkly satirical play on class and power.
Moviegoers are saying
Savage House divides audiences with its ambitious attempt at dark period comedy, earning praise for Claire Foy and Richard E. Grant's powerhouse performances while frustrating viewers with its one-note execution and crude humor. Critics appreciate the Barry Lyndon-inspired cinematography and period authenticity, but many find themselves checking their watches rather than engaging with the story.

    At its best when its leaning into the dark humour but it struggles to maintain that tone over the whole runtime and while Richard E. Grant and Claire Foy are fun I would have liked more bitchiness between them.

    Holy colour grading! How I love gloomy England... Richard E Grant is an utter treat and the highlight of this film with his agony and eccentric mania alongside the very realistic living conditions of Georgian England (it was disgusting). When Richard E Grant said "chin…

    An odd but effective period piece I'm surprised Paramount buried, also releasing "Scary Movie" this weekend. But then again this is just an accquistion and it was meant to release late 2024. How odd, but upon seeing it I see why this wouldn't be a mainstream hit. Sir…
