The Royal Secret is a curious piece of horror from 2020, although the director remains a mystery, which adds to its allure. The atmosphere is thick with tension, almost claustrophobic at times, as it explores the idea of perfection through the lens of the number ten. The pacing is uneven—some scenes drag, while others hit with surprising intensity. Practical effects are utilized with a commendable restraint, creating an unsettling realism that many CGI-heavy films lack. The performances are a mixed bag, but there's something raw and authentic that pulls you in. It's definitely one of those films that lingers in your mind, especially with its themes of obsession and the dark side of perfection.
