“The London-based, Chinese born-and-raised Sun credits British horror director Norman J. Warren as a mentor, which is cool, but Susu is a much lusher and atmospheric film. It is just a lot of fun, like watching a stately Jane Eyre adaptation turn into a Giallo.”

“Shot at historical sites-including a 16th century English mansion and the old house of Charlie Chaplin and his mother-Susu is a classic British psychological thriller with a stylish international twist from first-time writer/director Yixi Sun.”
By Broadway World
“When I sat down to watch this movie, I had horror on my mind although it turned out to be more of a throwback style psychological thriller complete with some seriously dysfunctional family drama. That being said, there were still some elements of horror woven in and the movie is still very creepy and has a dark, Gothic feel which gave it a nice variety overall. “

“It’s a different experience from all the mainstream films that are hyped up and you already know a good chunk about the characters and can even guess what may happen… If you love films about creepy houses with bizarre and unsettling family dynamics that are layered with mystery and uncertainty, watch SUSU.”
