Ne jouez pas avec la nature de la mère.
Un soir, tard dans la nuit, une adolescente muette et crasseuse se fait happer par une ambulance devant l’hôpital St. Thaddeus, puis est prise en charge par le personnel médical, qui ignore qu’elle y a été amenée par la Femme sauvage, qui l'a élevée dans les bois pendant des années. Darlin’, qui a reçu son nom du bracelet qu’elle porte, est transférée au pensionnat catholique pour filles St. Philomena, où l’évêque juge qu'utiliser le « salut » de l’adolescente pourrait lui rapporter des fonds indispensables. Alors que Darlin’ apprend à connaître ses excentriques camarades de classe, l’évêque, lui, force sœur Jennifer à l’aider à dompter la farouche, et enceinte, Darlin’. Pendant ce temps, la Femme rôde autour en attendant l’occasion de récupérer Darlin’ et de faire couler le sang de ceux qui lui feront obstacle.

More gratuitous violence and less catholic girl home might have helped in making the movie more entertaining. OK to watch but nothing extraordinary. Maybe it would have worked better if I'd have seen the first one (https://trakt.tv/movies/the-woman-2011).
The third part of a trilogy, _Darlin'_ fails to live up to the tall order set up by its predecessor, _The Woman_ (2011). Now, having not yet seen the first movie - _Offspring_ (2009) - I only have the second film as a point of reference. Greater mythology aside, this was still weak. A strong first, and second act, but it then fizzles out and doesn't stick the landing. As for the tone: I was hoping for more of what _The Woman_ offered, and it was close, but veered into dark comedy more than I would like. What it holds onto is the same feminist power fantasy, only this time, instead of sinking its teeth into the conservative nuclear family, it is crucifying Christianity - specifically Catholicism. Do you know who's okay with that? This guy. Where the story suffers is when it has to link back to the Dead River world, by which I mean, Pollyanna McIntosh shows up to remind us that this is still part of a bigger tale. _Darlin'_ really needed to simply be about a young girl who is taken in by an evil Catholic school. Disjointed, vague at times, heavy handed with its message. I'd still recommend this to horror fans, but only if you like political messages with your gore.
This one syncs in right in line after the first two. Nothing special, but nothing bad, and still enjoyable.
Mix several thorny issues. However, it loses credibility at times and the resolution is not good.
Uhh, is this meant to be a comedy? The tone is all over the place. It's like 'Terminator 2' where it can be extremely silly with the whole "fish out of water" concept but all of a sudden there's ultraviolence and implied rape. If you haven't seen the prequel 'The Woman' then you won't understand the significance a radio or a gingerbread man cookie has to this feral teenager. Not as satisfying or coherent in its message as the others in this trilogy. Also, what the hell was with that credits song??
