Orphan

The synopsis: After the tragic loss of their unborn baby, Kate (Vera Farmiga) and John (Peter Sarsgaard) adopt a seemingly angelic little girl named Esther (Isabelle Fuhrman). Not too long after they bring her home, however, dangerous events start occurring, and Kate wonders if Esther is responsible.

The twist: Not only is Esther responsible, but she's also a 33-year-old woman!!!!!!!!!!! Due to a hormone disorder that stunts her growth, Esther is cleverly able to hide her true age with makeup and clothing. In an even more bizarre turn, Esther attempts to seduce John, fails, and then kills him. This leads to Kate having an epic showdown with her on top of a frozen lake that finally results in middle-aged Esther's death.

The amount of damage it'll do to your psyche: 🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪
