The Ghoul is an atmospheric slow-burn crime film more interested in psychology and the occult than in solving crimes.

Discovering clues in the house of a shadowy suspect, he goes undercover as a patient to see the suspect’s psychotherapist. But our understanding of Chris is quickly turned on its head as we get inside his, with Meeten excelling in portraying his character’s complex duality.
