About

You may like this if you enjoy offbeat indie horror-comedy with awkward relationship drama and a creeping cabin-in-the-woods setup, somewhere between Room 104 and Creep 2; Not for you if you want fast pacing or strong scares.

Pros: clever premise; natural character dynamics; creepy low-key moments | Cons: slow pacing; weak scares; uneven horror-comedy mix
