Anti-Climactic, To Say The Least.
7 February 2024
What did I just watch?!

Obviously, it's a psychological exploration of post-partum depression.

But I wouldn't classify it as either a horror or thriller...rather, just a drama.

Calling it a slow burner is an understatement.

Because literally nothing happens in this film.

It's just a low budget film that attempts to portray the psychological downfall of a woman who miscarries.

With bad voiceovers that are meant to be auditory hallucinations.

And some very mediocre acting.

Seriousness of the topic, aside.

This film is just way too slow and boring.

Even during it's "climax" (which is rather anti-climactic, to say the least).

I mean...the whole thing is based on character development.

But I never found myself caring about the character.

So it was really hard to remain engaged with it.

Perhaps it's because I'm not the target market for this kind of story.

But I just found this to be a completely forgettable film.

Clock is a similar kind of film that does a much better job attacking the subject, in my opinion.
