About
You’ll likely enjoy this slow, unsettling horror if you want tension that lingers and fear built from being relentlessly pursued rather than jump scares; Not for you if you want clear answers, heavy scares, or fully satisfying conclusions.
Pros: chilling, slow-burn dread; memorable atmosphere; strong lead performance | Cons: unclear concept; uneven character depth; some say it isn’t scary
