About
If you enjoy slow-burn, claustrophobic horror with a bleak survival vibe and an ambiguous paranormal edge, this may work for you; Not for you if you want fast scares, clear answers, or minimal gore—think Darling or Winchester.
Pros: creepy atmosphere; tense survival setup; unsettling moments | Cons: very slow pace; thin story answers; gross, extreme content
