Bad lighting & a loud soundtrack

Rating: 1/10 (25 March 2018)

I'm pretty sure half the visuals in the film were hidden by bad lighting. The same goes for the dialog, either the backing music (cliche horror scream-chorus) was to loud or the actors were mumbling. From what I gleaned of the rest of it, a slow burner to nowhere. I gave up about half way through because the score had a constant whine to it that felt like simulated tinnitus, & the scenes had apparently devolved into children shouting each others names in scared voices whilst carrying candles (there may have been other things in the scenes but it's hard to tell as they appeared to be lit by candle light then darkened with a filter post production).
It felt like someone was trying very hard to make a cult classic horror but I think if you take off the soundtrack it would be obvious the movie is more a period drama with paranoid people. I can't say I noticed much of a plot... at one point there was a rabbit that was clearly scary because of the ominous music, perhaps some sort of Monty Python homage that was so deadpan I missed it.
TL,DR: Turn up the brightness on your screen if you want to see what's happening.
