About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a tense, creepy rural curse story with bursts of disturbing gore and a strong sense of place, similar to Satan's Slaves or The Queen of Black Magic; Not for you if you dislike abrupt tonal shifts or exposition-heavy explanations.
Pros: gripping opening; eerie village atmosphere; strong, unique story | Cons: jarring tonal shift; heavy exposition late; some plot holes
