🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its tension at the intersection of folk horror and family tragedy, using the water demon as a metaphor for primal fear. It relies on a classic monster-hunt structure while exploring the psychological scars of childhood trauma.
Those who tire of jump-scares will appreciate the palpable dread built through murky visuals and local superstition. What lingers after the final clash is a raw, unsettling sense of ancient forces lurking just beneath the surface. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Xiang Qiuliang

Watch in a dark room to feel the full claustrophobic terror of the deep-water scenes.
