Gentile, from 2020, really dives into the unsettling world of faith and doubt. It centers on a young girl caught between her mother's beliefs and a creepy masked figure appearing next to a grotesque cross. The atmosphere is thick with tension, almost palpable. The use of practical effects adds a raw edge, enhancing the haunting visuals without overwhelming the narrative. The pacing is deliberate, letting the dread build slowly, which really hooks you. Performances are solid, especially the lead, whose internal conflict feels genuine. It's a unique take on the horror-thriller genre, exploring themes of faith and manipulation in a way that lingers long after the credits roll.
