“The Killing Of A Sacred Deer” (** out of four) was an oppressively weird melodrama about a troubled surgeon (Colin Farrell) who befriends a young boy (Barry Keoghan) with a neurological disorder but it turns out that the boy has motives for vengeance against him and his wife (Nicole Kidman) and the rest of his family for a mishap that occurred with the surgeon years earlier and he makes all of them sick. Strikingly directed and filmed by director Yorgos Lanthimos but the result is off-puttingly bizarre and aloof like much of his previous work. Farrell is first-rate as usual; Kidman is wasted. This marks their second collaboration after last year’s awful “The Beguiled.”
