Paradise Hills

The first feature film for writer-turned-director Alice Waddington, Paradise Hills is described as “A mysterious boarding school perfectly reforms wayward girls to fit their surroundings’ exact desires.”

That doesn’t sound sinister at all, does it?

With a great cast, including Eiza Gonzalez, Milla Jovovich, Emma Roberts, Awkwafina, and Danielle Macdonald, can Paradise Hills find a place in the wider consciousness, or is it destined to become a niche film with a rabid following?
