Visually appealing but lacking in story

Rating: 6/10 (30 September 2019)

When I first saw the trailer for this movie I had certain (high) expectations and after viewing I feel that some of those expectations were not met.
This film has a lot going for it both visually and character wise, but to me it fell at at the end.
The directing and cinematography was incredible and gave me a general sense of unease and creepiness that I greatly enjoyed.
However I felt that the overall story was slow and underwhelming. The acting for each character was good but I felt that they were limited by what was written for them. I felt that each character could have given us a lot more/better dialogue but it just felt like they were kind of capped.
Most of the deaths in this film were underwhelming or just not shown at all. Going into this movie I was excepting more gore to be shown but we were only give a slice of what I think would have made the movie that much better.
These are just a few of my comments and concerns with the film. I do believe that this is a good movie and I did enjoy the suspense build up however I feel there were several elements that were missed that could have really improved the film overall.
