I liked this movie more than I expected. Turns out I really like Zach Gilford in scary things! I also like Amanda Crew, and while I don’t think I’ve seen either Alisha Wainwright or Carlos Santos in much before, I liked them both here. And the kids…well, there was definitely something wrong with them, but not with their performances.
This isn’t a perfect film, but it starts out interesting and doesn’t really let up. It goes in a bit of a different direction than I expected, but it kind of leads you there from the start.
I also liked the score to this film, for the most part. It reminded me a bit of the Stranger Things theme in places. And I felt like the pacing and tension were pretty good.
I wish the ending were better, though. I thought it was a bit anticlimactic. Overall, though, I found this entertaining and highly watchable.
