About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a remote-island mystery with ritual-tinged suspense and a determined amateur investigation; Not for you if you need fresh twists or strong horror, and it may feel mild after The Body.
Pros: eerie island setting; steady pace; intriguing mystery | Cons: familiar thriller beats; uneven supporting roles; TV-movie feel
