    Not a horror movie, so set your expectations

    Like The Witch or Hereditary, this is a simple, slow-moving film that's about atmosphere and isolation and creepiness, not horror or jump scares. The telling of the Golem tale is very accurate to the most common versions, so if you are a folklore fan you will be satisfied. And it's only 90 minutes long.

    Its actually allright

    I wouldn't call it a horror but it is a nice one

    Its a bit of everything. But mostly drama I wouldn't spoil it but its worth to watch

    Classic horror form

    The reviews of this being "too slow" or "not a horror" are honestly missing what makes a horror movie a horror. It doesn't have to be slashers or jumpscares, horror can be tales of the strange and macabre. Like the monumental classics. This film would stand right alongside the classics of the 30s, though it has more gore. This movie is an excellent example of those alternatives. A dark story of loss, vengeance, and fear. One set in a very interesting historical time period and based on actual lore. With this, the film itself has gorgeous cinematography and a wonderful score. If you love classic horror, dark dramas, or just fine cinema then ignore the unnecessarily low reviews and check this one out.

    not bad

    The movie was a bit slow, but the acting was great, and the sets and cinematography were spot on. there was nothing new as far as horror tropes go, but i enjoyed watching!

    So tired of the "Too slow" reviews lately....

    We are living in a world that is so fast paced and so many people want some sort of super instant gratification from everything. If something on the screen isn't super action oriented it gets called "Slow and Boring" Everyone just "Slow down!" Enjoy a movie that tells a story, has character development, teaches you some things about other cultures, religions, and their differences. Not just cheesy jump scares and stupid dialog.

    I really liked this movie. The acting was very good from people I have never seen before, and if you give yourself time to breathe and enjoy it you will be rewarded with a good story with an evil protagonist and some super gory outcomes for the people in the story. The scenery is great as well as the photography.

    I don't want to spoil anything. I'll just say leave the world for 90 minutes and immerse yourself and concentrate and you'll realize some movies are slow for a reason.

    If I listened to reviewers I'd miss out on many great movies.

    • Trivia
      The Hebrew text on the Golem is 'emet' or truth. Removing the first consonant (the aleph) the word reads 'dead' and is the way to kill the Golem.

      Though the story is set in 1673, they are using kerosene lamps that weren't invented until 1853.
