The pacing keeps you on edge, allowing the tension to build naturally. The practical effects, especially during the demonic encounters, are raw and visceral, adding to the overall dread. The performances, particularly from the lead, are compelling; she really embodies the struggle between reality and the supernatural. There’s something distinct about how it handles the theme of faith versus fear, which adds layers to the typical horror narrative. It's a chilling exploration of inner demons, quite literally, and worth a look for collectors who appreciate nuanced horror.
