We Are What We Are
This is the horrific story of the Barkers family, an isolated family that follows the old habit. Events change, and the mystery of the family's existence is horrifyingly threatened. This made the members of the Frank-headed family much worried, and the two daughters Iris and Rose were forced to take responsibility which seemed scary and probably reflected many of the bad aspects.

"We Are What We Are" is such a patient, trusting film it may take you a while to figure out it's a horror film.

We Are What We Are doesn't waste time with cheap scares. Mickle keeps his story on a steady, slow simmer, transporting us minute by minute into the very heart of dread.

The movie stays elegantly restrained just long enough for the true horror of what they're doing to sink in.

... a horror film by definition-an isolated family in rural America cloisters its teenage daughters in a religion/ritual that reaches back to their starving forefathers who turned to cannibalism to survive a harsh frontier-but a family drama at heart.
