Such a disappointment.

Rating: 3/10 (9 September 2018)

I have never felt more compelled to write a review than I do about this movie, so this is my first for IMDB.
The directing was rough. We had to pause the movie several times to read the things that were brought up and pertinent to the plot, which was an overused mechanic; you shouldn't have to do that as much as it was shown, as a viewer. There were a lot of confusing, internal conflicts, conversations, lack of conversations, and imagery. It was like someone threw the plot of Paranormal Activity in with The Shining's psychological horror, added over suspense with 1980's synth with weird angles and Twilight awkward moments and called it a good horror movie.
There were definitely some good parts and a lot disturbing and shocking scenes that worked out... like the pain and grief the mother went through. That was probably the most powerful scene in the entire movie. However, for example, the awkward pauses and lack of communication during the arguments were frustrating. The ending was frustrating. I had to resort to YouTube for an explanation... really?
This could have been a great movie and gone down in history as a household name in the horror movie industry, but it was poorly executed. The acting was great with the script they had, the plot was great... but why naked people?! What did that have to do with anything?!
