If you've ever wondered what it would be like to watch a film by someone with an entirely vibes-based understanding of Poe's work who doesn't actually know what any of the words in the poems mean, this film is your answer. Great atmosphere, zero substance. Random phrases from Poe's work just sprinkled in with no regard for sense or context. Entertaining enough if you're willing to shut your brain off and just enjoy the scenery, but if you enjoy Poe's work for its emotionality instead of just the spooky aesthetic, it's a miss.
Not bad.
Interesting idea, great creature design, and just intriguing enough that I really wanted to see how it ended.
Decent.
Not the best but enjoyable
