Next of Kin (1982)
In a rest home for elderly people, a daughter reads her mother's diary. Soon events that are mentioned in the mother's diary begin to happen to the daughter.
Superior horror film nicely builds up the mystery and the tension, but in the end goes no holds barred.
Halliwell (no star): "Slow-starting but finally over-the-top melodrama, with elements drawn from Psycho, Taste of Fear and a score of other creepies."

Why Did You Kill Me? (2021)
The line between justice and revenge blurs when a devastated family uses social media to track down the people who killed 24-year-old Crystal Theobald.
Ambiguous, but compelling chronicle shows a dubious, but successful attempt to catch a killer; basically a very sad story revealing the harrowing effect and impact of meth addiction on all involved.
