slow moving horror
Edward (Carloto Cotta) has been searching for his biological family to no avail. He does an online DNA test which connects to his twin Manuel in Portugal. He and his girlfriend Riley (Brigette Lundy-Paine) travel to the remote mountain home of Manuel and their elderly mother.
This is slow. It's a small horror from Portugal and it feels inconsequential. I thought they would do something with the twin aspect, but they leave it to the final reveal which is very anti-climatic. They need to reveal it sooner and have fun with the consequences. As for the mother, there is some janky makeup going on. I get the Benjamin Button idea, but she would be better as forever young. This is a poor effort.
