What Killed Timmy Benson? takes a slow-burn approach, enveloping the viewer in a chilling, wintry atmosphere that feels almost claustrophobic at times. The tension builds as we follow Timmy, an innocent child unaware of the dark history lurking in his quaint village. The practical effects, while not extravagant, effectively evoke a sense of dread, especially the moments where the dark presence makes itself known. The performances, particularly that of the child actor, are grounded, which adds to the unsettling nature of the unfolding mystery. It's not just about the scares; there's a haunting exploration of how past traumas can seep into the present, affecting even the youngest among us. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind after the credits roll.
