About
If you enjoy bleak, suspenseful creature features with sticky, stomach-turning body horror and a small cast under pressure, this fits; Not for you if animal harm or gross-out scenes are dealbreakers—think The Thing vibes.
Pros: tense slow-burn buildup; grim farm atmosphere; practical creature thrills | Cons: very gross moments; pacing drags mid-film; limited creature reveals
