I was able to see the direction of the film early on as it does mirror Misery quite a bit. However, I loved the era and location of the setting. Acting was well done and the gore was just right. I did not mind the subtitles one bit. I’d watch it again and share it.
Wow this is crazy and sad . So good
Very good. Was a bit predictable, but did have a couple of good twists in the story.
good
I think there’s so many wonderful things about this movie. The story was beautifully acted. This made me keep my Shudder account.
