About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an isolated, bleak survival story with strange creatures, moody visuals, and a more art-house, ambiguous vibe than straightforward horror, somewhat akin to The Returned; Not for you if you need clear answers and conventional scares.
Pros: striking island atmosphere; strong lead performances; tense nightly survival | Cons: thin explanations; uneven pacing; some uncomfortable content
