Aconitum is something else. It dives into the eerie, almost suffocating atmosphere that lingers throughout its runtime. You've got this 19-year-old protagonist, Ashley Cotton, who stumbles onto these tapes. They unravel a dark path tied to the mysterious government branch, AERD. The pacing is a bit deliberate, but it builds tension nicely, drawing you into its unsettling world. The performances, especially from Ashley, feel raw and genuine, which adds to the creepy vibe. What really stands out are the practical effects—they’ve put a lot of effort there, giving it a grounded, gritty feel. It doesn't try too hard to be flashy, instead opting for that low-key horror that sticks with you.
