Outstanding

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2018)

This is by far one of the best movies I've watched in a while. The Spanish language film (with English subtitles) is a psychological thriller that takes place in an old orphanage. The story, which is well crafted and compelling, will keep you on the edge of your seat right through to its haunting final act. Although classified as a thriller/horror film, the scares come more from the story itself and the atmospheric dread created by the old orphanage's setting. There are very few jump scares, contrary to the norm these days with this genre, as the film focuses more on creating a narrative that is scary enough all on its own. The film's conclusion had me in tears, which I must admit was rather unexpected. Highly recommended. Trust me, just go find this movie and watch it now!
