About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a moody, creepy asylum-set mystery that mixes psychological doubt with supernatural scares, similar to In Dreams or Nightwatch; Not for you if you hate confusing plots or need airtight answers.
Pros: eerie asylum vibe; strong lead performance; keeps you guessing | Cons: confusing plot holes; rushed final stretch; too much screaming
