Sisters (2005 film)

Sisters is a 2005 Canadian psychological thriller film directed by Douglas Buck. It is a remake of the 1973 Brian De Palma film of the same name, which was itself inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. The 2005 version stars Lou Doillon as Angelique/Dominique Breton, Stephen Rea as Dr. Philip Lacan, and Chloe Sevigny as Grace Collier, a journalist who witnesses a murder.

The film follows Grace Collier as she investigates the murder of a rock star by one of a pair of conjoined twins, Angelique and Dominique. Dominique, the dominant and manipulative sister, coerces Angelique into committing the crime. Dr. Lacan, the twins' manipulative psychiatrist, is involved in separating the twins surgically and attempts to control Grace's investigation. The film explores themes of mental illness, identity, and the dark side of medical intervention.

The 2005 Sisters is known for its graphic violence and explicit content, distinguishing it from the original. It received mixed reviews, with some critics praising its atmosphere and performances, while others criticized its gratuitousness and lack of subtlety compared to the De Palma film.
