🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its dread from the clash between rational modernity and ancient folk belief, relying on a persistent, low-key atmosphere of impending doom.
What lingers after viewing is a chilling sense of inescapable fate, where the supernatural feels deeply rooted in the landscape. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Martin G. Goldman

Watch alone at night, with minimal lights, to let the rural unease seep in.
