Horror through emotions

Rating: 8/10 (17 October 2018)

This film intentionally exhibits a droning pace of tension. It feels like several films in one, playing off themes of grief, anxiety, shock, mental instability and overall creepiness. Those that enjoy cheap jump scares of slasher films are looking in the wrong direction. This movie is a collection of hidden moments and foreshadowing that add to the overall effectiveness. If you just want to watch something that you don't have to spend any energy or thought on to be entertained - this is not likely going to be your cup of tea. This is the type of film that is engrossing and likely gets even more effective after a second viewing when you pick up on all of the smaller elements.
