Netflix monstrosity without dialogue, I would have preferred it without images, what a horrible film. This isn't even a b-movie, it's too bad for that...

It takes some getting used to such a thriller with no dialogue whatsoever. In many scenes it all works out quite well, but at other times it undermines the entire film and you really can't get away with it. I certainly didn't think he was that bad. At times it is really exciting, apart from the fact that the traditional clichés are brought to the surface of stupid moves and unrealistic powers of the antagonists.

Not really a horror of course. There are no real jump scares and if there are, you will definitely see them coming. No dialogue does not necessarily mean no sound. The moaning and wailing of the children is thus emphasized. Too bad for the suffering and fear of the children, it was also somewhat irritating. The cat and mouse game is also unnecessarily drawn out, despite the fact that the film is barely 85 minutes long.

The film was somewhat reminiscent of certain horror computer games, such as 'Little Nightmares' where you have to hide in cupboards in creaky houses to avoid being seen by the monsters. The 'monsters' in this film were very slow and dull, and the woman in particular looked quite ordinary. The music was decent, but occasionally it also sounded like the sound of a strongly resonating neighbor's washing machine. All in all, a nice watch if you ever feel like clearing your mind completely. The girl probably thought it was fun and exciting to be able to play this role.

What a Heinous opening act, such an Evil act off the bat which can only mean the possibility of more Ferocious acts later. Our main characters are quite young, and they're easy prey for those who would do wrong to young people. The Suspense is ramping up, and 1 of our characters is proving to be rather Brave and possibly beyond Desperate at this point in the film.

Our character is proving to be Resourceful, and showing rather impressive calm in the situation at hand. Such a Horrible hand they've been dealt, and we hope that they find the strength to Survive and overcome the Evil. This movie plays with your emotions, and leaves you with a heavy heavy heart...
