I'm really glad i watched this during the day!! The movie is a slow burn for sure, but absolutely worth it!! It's one ofvthe best horror movies I have watched.
movie was long in the beginning, had a cool concept to start and then lost any semblance of plot midway through and began to rely heavily on jump scares and random gore. main character was not scary but another character (will not say who as to not spoil) we see in the end was much more unsettling when blood soaked and shouldve been cast a leading role over the actual main character. going from possession to what is practically a zombhie movie made no sense.
Perfect
I haven't seen an actual "scary" movie in ages but let me tell you. THIS one!!!!! Not sure if it hit so hard because I'm am very spiritually enlightened or what the case may be but this movie scared the sh*** out of me. I watched it super late in complete darkness and after the movie I was looking around my room like something was about to pop out at me. Don't mind the reviews about how slow this movie is and all that jazz. If you are into scary shh watch this! Leave your review so others can read! Just watch it, till the end!!!!
Let me tell you, I could only bear 51 minutes of this nonsense. Nothing happened for 51 minutes, just wasted my time watching these contorted people, these dwarf-like individuals spouting nonsense licenses, talking in nonsensical languages, and reading subtitles. And in the end, I was about to throw up and I said enough is enough. First of all, I believe that for civilization to advance, artificial intelligence will optimize the communication languages of humanity into something more generic and optimizable. I hope both future generations and we won’t have to learn, understand, read, or write such languages. What nonsense that alphabet is, really. It's high time we moved beyond this, I believe. Apart from that, the film was dreadful. I couldn't understand what it was about. After 51 minutes, the worst part was realizing there were still 2 hours left. Can you imagine? Two more hours of this absurdity. I said I can't watch this rubbish for 3 hours and I didn't. Don't make the mistake of watching it.
