The Man Who Sits with the Dead has this gritty, unsettling vibe that lingers long after the credits roll. You get this deep dive into this guy's struggle with family legacy—being the one who sits with the departed. It’s a slow burn, but it builds tension through its eerie soundscape and shadowy visuals. The practical effects are a mixed bag, but some moments pull off a haunting realism that sticks with you. The performances lean into the awkwardness of his life choices, blending pathos with the bizarre. There's this raw exploration of necrophilia that adds a layer of taboo, and it grapples with the seductive call of darkness versus the desire for a normal existence. Definitely a unique piece in the horror genre.
