Went Up the Hill

Went Up the Hill (2025) is an Australian-New Zealand supernatural thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Samuel Van Grinsven and starring Dacre Montgomery and Vicky Krieps.

Jack travels to remote New Zealand for the funeral of the mother who left him as a child. He got a message from her widow Jill — except Jill says she never sent it. From the first night, the mother's spirit returns and begins taking turns inhabiting both of them: a three-way nocturnal possession that turns grief into something far stranger and more dangerous than Jack came prepared for.

Van Grinsven leans into discomfort over shock — art-horror that trusts silence. Montgomery, known from Stranger Things, and Krieps, who turned in a career-defining performance in Phantom Thread, bring an unsettling chemistry that holds the film together.
