Enjoyed this movie. Ending could’ve been a lot better.
Could have been really good. The acting and the landscape were decent. The story line was all over the place, particularly after half way through. A shame really, love a good Celtic folky horror :(
Really enjoyed this one. Definitely could’ve done with a deeper dive into the witchcraft but great acting, costume, cinematography, and interesting storyline.
Overall a good modern folk horror. The ending was quite ambiguous though.
Good cinematography, atmosphere, & acting. The plot was really a squandered opportunity, unfortunately. Confusing & meandering. Love folk horror & hoping to find more on the service.
