Viewing Notes

While not entirely successful there’s plenty of creepy stuff combined with great production and sound design to make it worthwhile. I did like the ending I was just hoping for a little more payoff during the third act.

That said, there are some genuinely creepy moments that raised the hair on the back of my neck, which is always a good thing.

As far as the premise goes, very effective for me given my parents’ ages and mine.
