Practical effects, though not groundbreaking, add a raw edge to the visceral experiences portrayed. Performances are striking, particularly from Daisy Marie, whose embodiment of raw desire juxtaposes with the film's darker themes. It’s that mix of eroticism and horror that makes the film stand out, though it certainly isn’t for the faint-hearted.
