Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon (out Oct 13) is a thriller-drama about a struggling stripper and her son who befriend an escaped mental patient with hypnotic powers. It’s trying to be something which is part supernatural, part family-orientated but it’s low on ideas (the stripper just keeps fleecing people for money). Grade: C+.
