About
If you like tense, intimate horror built around exhaustion, doubt, and a creeping sense of dread, this may work for you, especially if you enjoyed Breaking at the Edge; Not for you if you want fast-paced scares or clear answers.
Pros: strong suspense; effective performances; unsettling new-parent stress | Cons: some believability issues; questionable choices; limited outside support
