The scares and the overall horror are done amazingly well, there is one scene in particular that completely shocked me of how unpredictable it was, such brilliance can’t be found that often in horror movies nowadays. The acting is soberbe, everyone was great, I think that Lia McHugh deserves a big recognition for this, with such young age, brought unbelievable emotion to this movie.
