Why is she allowed to sweep right by the front door hours after almost killing someone? Because the movie needs to happen. But as the camera pans around we see Idti, the violent patient that tried to kill Anna just hours ago, sweeping the floor nearby. With almost no problem at all, she reaches the main door but that’s when a guard finally shows up. She grabs his keycard, packs up her stuff, and runs out of the room. Standing on a chair, she caresses him and then bashes his head into the wall multiple times, seemingly killing him. She then invites him into her room and he excitingly agrees. Leena is aware of his lust and asks him to help her tie the wristlets on her wrists. It’s overtly clear Dmitri is attracted to Leena, gross since she has the appearance of a ten-year-old. Later (still the same day) a security guard, Dmitri, drops off a package for Leena and watches through the window on the door as she pulls out a dress. “Just ignore that I called her name moments before she attacked and then threw her a piece of candy after she did so.” As Idti is dragged out of the room, Leena throws her the piece of candy and sheepishly tells Anna that Idti does that sometimes. Idti immediately and violently lunges towards Anna but is stopped by the orderlies. Leena calls over to another patient, Idti, and shows her a piece of candy. Sometime later (same day because of security footage timestamp) the patients including Leena are in art therapy as Anna watches over them. Hold up, why is this movie called first kill? We just found out she’s already killed. Two years prior she ran the same scam but this time she killed the family. We learn that when Leena first arrived at the institute, her desire to leave was so high, she struggled with her restraints until they left deep cuts on her wrists and neck, leaving behind scars.īefore being sent to the institute, Leena was a con artist that posed as missing children before robbing the families. We then cut to Leena in her room putting on a fake set of teeth.īack with the director, he continues filling Anna in on Leena’s backstory which is as you expect violent. The Director tells her Leena is actually 31 years old but has a gland disorder which has haltered her growth appearing 10 years old. Meanwhile, since Anna hasn’t seen the first movie she is shocked to learn Leena is a child. The director and the orderlies rush in before Leena can do anything and they take her back to her room. Leena does a quick sketch of Anna and then gets up grasping the pencil like she’s about to Michael Myers it up. Anna, not knowing she is Leena and because she is a child, assumes she is the daughter of one of the doctors. Since no one cleared the room, guess who is sitting at a table just a few feet from the door? That’s right, the missing patient, Leena (played by Isabelle Fuhrman). “Hey shouldn’t someone check this room before you lock me in here?” He then shuts the door which is electronically locked by security. The Director takes Leena into a room and instructs her to not leave until he returns. Telling someone that the reason they were hired is due to a patient murdering their predecessor is important, but probably not when that patient has just gone missing. He casually also mentions that she is the reason they needed a new art therapy instructor. At the entrance, she’s searched and meets with the Director who takes her on a tour before they are interrupted by an orderly who informs him that a patient, Leena, is missing.Īnna asks who Leena is and the Director tells her Leena is their most dangerous patient. The film opens in Estonia 2007 as Anna Troyev (played by Gwendolyn Collins), an art therapy instructor, arrives at the mental hospital, The Saarne Institute, for her first day at work. There are a few creepy moments and some gore but overall you won’t leave Orphan First Kill scared unless you recently conned a family into thinking you’re their long lost relative. While there are a few jump scares in the first half of the film, Orphan First Kill leans more into the suspense of how long before the family finds out Esther’s secret. Today we’re looking at the Paramount+ exclusive, 2022’s Orphan First Kill the prequel to 2009’s Orphan starring Isabelle FuhrmanĪfter escaping from a psychiatric hospital in Estonia, Leena (Isabelle Fuhrman) cons a family into thinking she’s their long-lost daughter Esther. I love horror movies and if I’m going to watch them anyway, why not write an entertaining/funny review from the POV of an average movie-goer and not a professional critic.
