British director Michael Pearce made an impressive debut with this 2017 Channel Islands-set thriller Beast, helping to make a star of Jesse Buckley in the process. After an underwhelming sci-fi sojourn with 2021's Encounter, Pearce now returns to thriller territory with Echo Valley. If you've seen Max Ophuls' 1949 thriller The Reckless Moment or its 2001 Tilda Swinton-starring remake The Deep End, the premise of Echo Valley will prove familiar. Well, the first half at least. In its second half Echo Valley deviates off course, and it's at that point that it runs into trouble.
