Clawfoot is a 2023 American thriller directed by Michael Day in his feature directorial debut. The film stars Francesca Eastwood as Janet, a wealthy Los Angeles housewife whose monotonous life is disrupted by the unexpected arrival of Leo, a contractor portrayed by Milo Gibson. Claiming to have been hired by Janet’s absent husband to remodel their bathroom with a clawfoot bathtub, Leo’s intrusive and unsettling behavior raises Janet’s suspicions. As Leo’s actions become increasingly inappropriate, Janet confides in her lawyer neighbor, Tasha (Olivia Culpo), leading to a series of darkly comedic and violent events.

The film blends elements of home invasion thrillers, psychological suspense, and dark comedy, resulting in a genre-bending narrative that keeps viewers on edge. Critics have noted the film’s tonal shifts, with some praising its unique approach to blending horror and humor, while others found the transitions less effective. Francesca Eastwood’s portrayal of Janet has been highlighted for capturing the character’s transformation from a discontented housewife to a woman taking drastic measures to reclaim control over her life. The film premiered at the Newport Beach Film Festival on October 14, 2023, and was released in theaters on November 16, 2023.
