Solid but I think it bite off more than it could chew and it shows in the dialogue, pacing, and when we get an info dump at the end.
Atmosphere and premise are great, and the soundtrack is killer. Just before the end there was a bit of an exposition dump that detracted a lot for me.
Interesting take on the occult and witchcraft. Most occultists believe that words and sounds developed partially to cast spells. In some forms of witchcraft, a song or word is enough to get things moving, if that is the desire of the practitioner. As a descendent of the Scots and Irish, I will say our people, especially the women, are witchy AF. There are spirit families that are attached to lineages and move through the world with them.
the beginning of the movie is really not scary the middle of the movie is not really scary the end of the movie starts to get scary the movie should have been more like the end
Damn fine.
