About
You may like Dagon if you enjoy bleak, creepy horror with a strong sense of dread and strange seaside folklore; Not for you if you want fast pacing or clear-cut storytelling, though fans of From Beyond or The Endless may find it rewarding.
Pros: eerie atmosphere; memorable setting; creepy creature effects | Cons: uneven pacing; weak CGI; confusing dialogue
