About
You’ll likely enjoy this moody, subtle ghost story if you like slow-burning creepiness and a touching father-son dynamic, like The Boy or Dead of Summer; Not for you if you want lots of jump scares or a fast, straightforward horror payoff.
Pros: quiet dread; creepy family bond; inventive ghost lore | Cons: slow pacing; not consistently scary; uneven ending
