Intense and creepy slow burner.

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2019)

Midsummer is a fantastic film, that creeps under your skin and stays there. Don't expect slashy horror and jump scares. It's slow paced, and as the plot evolves, you'll love that tempo instead of a rushed story.
The story is at one point easy to digest. We've seen cult movies before, but at another point it's so unique because these are not evil people pretending to be nice. The are living people with old traditions.
It's going to take a few days to really comprehend it, and I absolutely recommend seeing it with someone, with whom you can talk about the movie afterwards.
One caveat. The runes are a complete mess. Some are mirrored, some doesn't exist, rules of magic runes are broken, etc.. They should have hired a runic consultant, instead of, what seem like, they just made it up on the spot.
The artwork and set detail is astonishingly amazing, and that alone takes it a point up, to 9/10 for me.
