Poison Ivy. Heavenly Creatures. Ginger Snaps. When two eccentric teenage girls bond an unlikely friendship, it’s a forgone conclusion that someone, somewhere, will die, and Thoroughbreds is no exception. But it’s about the journey, not the destination, and this story of a smart but cold provoker and her rich but undecided follower will keep you involved till the very end. The final scene almost shies away from an impactful dark ending the way Ingrid Goes West did, but the combined performances of Olivia Cooke (Ready Player One) and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Witch) are so memorable, you’re willing to forgive.
