Very interesting American gothic tale, focused mainly on two teenage sisters, struggling with the loss of their mother and the uncovering of their disturbing families secrets.
This is the first movie I’ve seen by director Jim Mickle, I enjoyed it, his movie builds tension well, and gives you just enough information to keep you interested in the unfolding story.
If you are looking for a typical Horror movie, this may not satisfy you, it’s more of a Drama/Horror hybrid that builds slowly.
The only real negative I found is that the score was a little too obvious and repetitive.
Bill Sage, Ambyr Childers and Julia Garner all gave very good performances.
7/10
