The pacing is deliberate, allowing for a slow burn that amplifies the tension throughout. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, evoke a gritty realism that enhances the film's dark themes of inherited trauma and misfortune. It's a distinct piece, not just for its narrative but also for its haunting visuals and performances that convey a profound sense of loss and desperation. A film that lingers in your mind long after viewing, it’s one to ponder.
