About this movie

In WE ARE WHAT WE ARE, a seemingly wholesome and benevolent family, the Parkers have always kept to themselves, and for good reason. Behind closed doors, patriarch Frank (Bill Sage, "Boardwalk Empire") rules his family with a rigorous fervor, determined to keep his ancestral customs intact at any cost. As a torrential rainstorm moves into the area, tragedy strikes and his daughters Iris (Ambyr Childers, THE MASTER) and Rose (Julia Garner, MARTHA MARCY MAY MARLENE, SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR) are forced to assume responsibilities that extend beyond those of a typical family. As the unrelenting downpour continues to flood their small town, the local authorities begin to uncover clues that bring them closer to the secret that the Parkers have held closely for so many years.

Good movie.. Really weird at the end.. I wasn't expecting that. I found it odd that they dressed so out of date. But I guess that was just part of there ritual of Lamb day or whatever. Its got spots of gore in the movie but its good. Makes It better that the girls seem so innocent and they are so beautiful. I would recommend this movie. It is on Netflix .. So go watch it there save a buck. Sorry Google. Love ya tho !

I really enjoyed the movie, especially the final act (which makes watching the whole thing worth it), but the rest of the movie suffers from some serious pacing issues. If you know that going into it and are OK with it, the payoff makes it worth the watch. 4 stars for the premise and great ending.

Slow, boring, bland, predictable. A few words there to describe the film. The concept was good but the execution was terrible. I wouldn't recommend you watch this film even just because you're curious, it definitely isn't worth any of your time.
