Palaisipan really dives into the depths of grief and the lengths a mother will go to for love. It’s a horror film, but it’s more about the emotional journey, exploring themes of loss and obsession. The pacing is deliberate, with a slow burn that builds an oppressive atmosphere. You can feel the weight of the mother's sorrow throughout. What stands out are the practical effects; they lend a rawness to the film that you don’t often see nowadays. The performances, especially from the lead, are hauntingly genuine, making her descent into darkness quite unsettling. There's this unique blend of psychological horror and supernatural elements that keeps the viewer in a state of tension. It resonates on a different level, which is what makes it distinct.
