The Fear Score take

De Palma builds pressure the way cruelty does — slowly, from every direction, until sympathy curdles into a sick certainty of what must come. The dread here is intimate: humiliation at school, terror at home, a body changing and a power waking. When the release arrives, it detonates. You will ache for it and flinch from it in the same breath.

• —Slow-building humiliation into inevitable violence
• —Domestic religious terror worse than school
• —Catharsis that turns your stomach
