This movie came as a shock to me, I had zero expectation, I didn't even know it was a horror flick when I put it on but man did I have a blast.
The movie isn't flawless and at times silly when characters make dumb choices but all in all this is a superb horror movie. It's scary, it's strange and it holds together from beginning til end.
It has those lovely Slow moments, shooting a dark corridor for an extended period of time like the did when film was great. Example in The pet sematary when the old man tells the tail on the porch and they show the dark trail leading into darkness for a long time. It gives your brain time to get scared by imagination, you fill in the blanks and that makes it scary.
The movie also have strange, almost delirium periods like the wacky neighbourhood in Vivarium.
The intro of the character is superb. I'm trying to be as vague as possible not to spoil anything.
All in all I rate this movie 8/10. Great film, im going to watch it many more times. In todays terrible movie times where nothing comes out except for super hero movies, this is a welcome contribution to real cinema.
