🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its narrative around the urban legend, using it as a framework for a tale of love, betrayal, and restless spirits. It explores the idea of a generational curse, deftly tying the horrors of the past to the anxieties of the present.

What lingers after the jump scares is a melancholic love story, a ghostly echo of tragedy that feels more sorrowful than terrifying. — MovieFinder Editorial
