About
You’ll like this if you want a slow, disturbing folk-horror experience built on dread and discomfort; Not for you if you need fast scares, clear answers, or easy fun.
Pros: unsettling daylight atmosphere; striking folk imagery; powerful lead performance | Cons: very slow pace; thin supporting characters; divisive shock moments
