About
You may enjoy this if you want a Danish horror-thriller with a creepy hospital vibe, familiar sequel beats, and bursts of gore; Not for you if you need tight pacing, strong logic, or originality like The Lodge.
Pros: eerie morgue setting; some tense moments; nostalgic callbacks | Cons: drags at two hours; weak dialogue; predictable story beats
