Yep, this was a good one, had a pretty freaky story. Great body horror and gore
I wanted to love this movie, but it was just OK. I liked the aesthetic. I love a slow burn, but I thought it was sluggish about building dread.
Joko Anwar did it again
Well done horror. It has some legitimately disturbing scenes and disturbing plot. This is not a shudder original as I do not think this was made of or by Shudder so no need to worry about the generally poor quality of their original content. There were some actual scary points in the film which is rare for horror these days. It would be nice if there were some information about the symbolism and folklore as I think some of that is lost on western audiences. 100% worth a watch
i recommend watching this one!
