Viewing Notes

Helmed by BODY AT BRIGHTON ROCK director Roxanne Benjamin, this is a nicely creepy evil children horror that would pair well with HERE COMES THE DEVIL. All the relationship stuff between the two couples and each other is really well done and believable. The score is incongruous at times, elevating key moments at times and undermining them at others. Overall though I dug it and I don’t understand its low rating on IMDB other than the general public has shitty taste.
