Chilling, sustained, proper horror

Rating: 9/10 (14 September 2018)

This is one of the very few modern horror movies that does the horror right. There's not a single jump scare in the entire movie, just a constant sensation of horror, at moments extremely intense, enough to send shivers down your spine. The movie industry has brainwashed people into believing that horror movies are about jump scares, and I've been saying that it's the cheapest way to fool people. Jump scares are scary by definition, they just startle people. There's a difference startling someone and really making them scared. The ending could have been better, but this is a proper mystery/horror movie. Acting is excellent, it's properly filmed, the soundtrack is haunting.
