The Other Lamb is a 2019 Belgium horror movie, made in English, that involves a female cult.

Plot[]

Malgorzata Szumowska’s “The Other Lamb” opens with a number of tell-tale signs that something is not quite right. While women and girls in prairie dresses and uniformly braided hair attend to daily chores around a remote camp in a picturesque forest, they are all singing the same hymn under the watchful painted image of their cult leader. At dinner, they quietly sit at a long table headed by a Charles Manson-like messianic figure referred to as the Shepherd (Michiel Huisman). He calls the women and girls his wives and daughters, and they dress according to their household standing. The wives are clad in red with some in purple-burgundy coats or fuschia accessories; the daughters wear teal blue dresses with green sweaters and coats. The Shepherd wears black. Naturally, he refers to his all-women cult as his flock.

Release[]

The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on 6 September 2019
