“Men” features Jessie Buckley as Harper, a British woman whose bi-polar husband has just committed suicide, so she escapes to a country estate rental in order to decompress from the incident. She encounters various men throughout her stay there (all portrayed with chilling accuracy by Rory Kinnear) who haunt her in various ways, and eventually she has to fight for her life.
