Sorry, Charlie (2023) Review

Kathleen Kenny (AFRICAN GIANTS) gives a standout performance as a survivor of a brutal attack by a violent serial murderer and rapist labelled ‘The Gentleman’ who lures unsuspecting women from their homes with a recording of a crying baby.

Following the devastating assault, helpline volunteer Charlie (Kenny) now lives a reclusive life, having cut herself off from her family and friends, haunted by the trauma.

Despite her attacker supposedly arrested and behind bars, Charlie cannot shake the feeling that she is not alone. Isolated and afraid, her paranoia grows. Is there someone stalking her, or is it all in her head?

Inspired by true events and directed by Colton Tran (THE BELL KEEPER, THE SEX LIVES OF COLLEGE GIRLS) SORRY, CHARLIE premiered at the 2023 Popcorn Frights Film Festival and has a refreshingly short runtime of 75 minutes.

There are easy comparisons to be drawn to the opening fifteen minutes of the original SCREAM and the first twenty minutes of the original WHEN A STRANGER CALLS too, but that shouldn’t distract from your enjoyment of this cat-and-mouse thriller that throws in a few plausible twists that will surprise you along the way to a satisfying climax.
