About

Watch if you enjoy weird Stephen King monsters and surreal, cat-driven horror fun; Not for you if you want serious, well-explained scares or prefer steadier classics like Pet Sematary or Thinner.

Pros: goofy dark fun; memorable cats; odd sincerity | Cons: low scare level; messy tone swings; plot feels thin
