Carl S I rented this film on Prime with my teenage daughters and we all really enjoyed it. The trailer look intriguing, and to be honest, though the horror genre is not really my thing, this film was a pleasant surprise. As some have stated in these reviews, this film is more of a supernatural thriller, which again, was just fine for me and my kids. There's no coarse language or nudity and the scares really come from the supernatural aspects of the story. The cinematography is gorgeous and the acting is strong, especially by the lead actor playing Will. There were plenty of twists and jump scares that made us satisfied for the 2hr runtime. Without giving away spoilers, there is a great ending to the film that aims to please, and that's just fine by me. I like a conclusive story with mystery. I would really recommend this film, especially for parents who want to watch a film with their teenage kids. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Frank H What a beautiful film! I'm someone who is typically willing to check out flicks I've never heard of before, even with actors I may not recognize (only at first in this case). This film was a wild card for me. I had never heard about it, but the trailer was definitely intriguing and I thought it was worth a try. First off, the opening sequence pulled me right in with the set up of the centuries old folklore, to the modern day past and then jump to present day. Yes, this sounds like a lot, but it all comes together with many plot payoffs at the end that ties each of the storylines together. I really liked the stillness of the storytelling - the film simmers throughout and breathes where it needs to. I also really enjoyed some of the jump scares which are peppered throughout the film. The cinematography was exceptional and the acting was solid all the way through. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/03/24 Full Review Rita P As many reviewers have already pointed out, this is a slower burn thriller that is unique (and weird in a good way) with multiple storylines that all manage to come together, giving it a mostly satisfying movie watching experience. The cinematography was exceptional, and the acting was solid. I read that the writer/director is part indigenous, and I am happy with how he dealt with these themes in the film. One of the reviews I read said that this film was made for something like $200K which is insane considering how beautiful it is, and how many big budget Hollywood films feel very flat these days. The film kept me guessing in parts, and was not too graphic. I think the exorcism scene at the end was really powerful. Especially for those who have experienced trauma in their childhood. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Terrence M Beautiful cinematography. Confusing here and there. Decent film. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review Jon G The is a new title free with Amazon Prime so we were willing to take a chance on it having not heard anything about it. First impressions were that the locations of filming and the cinematography are both really beautiful - in a creepy kind of way. The set-up of the film was also interesting as there are multiple storylines all happening at once (that eventually come together). We weren't expecting much from this so there were some big surprises in terms of jump scares and plot twists - but the film takes a wild turn when it goes deep into an exorcism scenario that is pretty intense - and also very heart-wrenching for this genre of film. I think the filmmaker was swinging for the fence with this one, which I honestly give massive props for. All in all - a really great indie film. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review Mario k An interesting movie with multiple storylines that was more of a thriller than a horror film.
