I really wanted to like this movie. The color grading was so inconsistent. I’m not even really sure what the plot was tbh, it was all over the place. The creature was super cool- but after seeing it stand in the same position over and over again, the fear evaporated.
What was meant to be a slow burn, ended up feeling sluggish and deliberately vague in an attempt at what I ca only imagine is mystery. The themes are on the nose and I kept looking for deeper meaning and what was offered was half cooked and surface level. Justice was served and we’re still left feeling like there should be more.
Haven't watched this yet, but noticed on the reviews that it made someone decide they want to become Amish? I'm half afraid to watch it!🤣
Good budget folk horror. A couple of familiar faces with good performances that pushed it to a 3💀 Some great cinematography in parts.
Cinematography and atmosphere on point. realistic portrayal of magical manifestations and employment.
