About
You may like this if you’re into slow-burn, moody horror that leans on dread and isolation more than action, similar to Citadel or Bird Box: Barcelona; Not for you if you want fast scares, clear answers, or lots happening.
Pros: eerie atmosphere; strong performances; striking setting | Cons: very slow pace; thin story payoff; confusing plot points
