Quartile rating: 7/10 · 1 rating
On Quartile, The Little Death scores 7/10 across five categories — strongest on Plot (Above Average), weakest on Cinematography (Below Average).
A comedy film that looks into the loosely connected lives of people with strange sexual fantasies.
The Little Death is a distinctively Australian ensemble sex-comedy that handles taboo sexual fetishes with surprising wit and empathy. Its novelty lies in the frank yet humane treatment of kink within suburban domesticity — a rare tonal balance. The acting is competent and naturalistic across the ensemble, and the interconnected vignette structure works well enough, though the cinematography is unremarkable TV-movie level. The ending ties threads together adequately without being truly memorable.
