Synopsis

The Loved Ones (2010) is an Australian horror film you can watch online on iFILM. Writer-director Sean Byrne turns a high school prom into a nightmare, with Xavier Samuel and Robin McLeavy in the leads.

Brent says no when quiet classmate Lola asks him to the dance. Big mistake. With help from her unhinged father, Lola kidnaps the boy and throws a prom of her own — pink dress, paper crown, and a tray of tools no teenager should own. Strapped to a chair in the family living room, Brent becomes the guest of honor at a ceremony built entirely around Daddy's little girl getting exactly what she wants. Outside, his girlfriend waits, with no idea how the night has gone.

Byrne blends teen melodrama, pitch-black comedy and genuine body horror without tipping into pure gore. McLeavy's Lola is the standout: sweet smile, nothing behind the eyes. The film became a festival favorite and still hits hard years later. Strictly for fans of the nasty and the unpredictable. Stream The Loved Ones (2010) online on iFILM.
