🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Visual style and narrative structure don't conflict here — they work together. It's noticeable and creates a sense of wholeness.
Worth watching for the overall quality of execution. Not a genre landmark — but solid work that respects the viewer.
For viewers who watch a lot and can distinguish craft from accident.
Director: Greg Tiernan

Viewing atmosphere: Weekend evening, couch, quiet. Doesn't require a special mood — creates one.
