Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Apr 17, 2024
While the films succeeds in creating a sense of atmospheric dread, it ultimately falls short in providing clear motivations for the actions of some of the characters. I found the obtuse nature of the storytelling to be frustrating, yet still interesting. Go to Full Review
Sharai Bohannon Horror Movie Blog Apr 1, 2024
Helena Stefansdottir’s understanding of space and ability to craft cool pictures will benefit a stronger script. Hopefully, a horror script with more bite and less empty vibes. I am excited to see her next outing as a director though. Go to Full Review
