Looks interesting. This type of movie is right up my alley.
Though this also looks like the first feature length film by the director. That usually doesn’t bode well.

This was good for a first full feature movie. One of those isolation horror flicks. The location was so gorgeous and haunting. With this and Nosferatu, scenes lit by candle light are so back!

Saw this last week . . . Really liked this! Beautifully shot, wonderfully acted. Very good on the "creep" factor, but maybe a few too many jump scares.
I would have liked to have gone a little deeper in providing more incentive for the paranoia and more connection throughout the story to the ending. I figured that was what was happening going in to that last bit of story, but it would have been nice to show us the connection throughout.
I didn't realize that was The Hound!
Odessa Young may be my new Hollywood crush . . .
