It's hard to classify this movie. Let's call it Gothic drama. There's really nothing scary. I'd say overall it's unsettling. You know this family is screwed when they leave their settlement to live alone. And there's no ambiguity - it takes a path and goes down it.
The acting is top notch. The story works when you realize what the end-game really is.
The music is downright creepy, creating a tone throughout. And that has to be the thickest woods I've ever seen that is not a jungle.
The very last scene sticks with you. It comes out of nowhere.
