🎬 MovieFinder's Take
PERKINS 28: Testimony from the Secret Court Files of 1920 is an acquired taste at 1.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.
Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.
A 2008 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
