About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a low-key supernatural mystery that leans more psychological than scary, in the vein of The Eye or The Ring Two; Not for you if you need fast pacing, clear answers, or frequent big scares.
Pros: eerie visions and mystery; strong sense of place; some suspense builds | Cons: very slow pacing; confusing, jumpy storytelling; uneven acting and writing
