It will be hated by many, but it's a really good film

It's a film that has a high risk of being hated by many for the way it subverts our expectations. It's also a film made by people who clearly love cinema, full of excellent production values, charismatic acting and with a strong social message. It takes patience and isn't as bloody and scary as it was sold, but its third act makes the whole trip worth it.

Classic? Definitely not.

Blair Witch meets The Village meets Midsommar. There you go.

Surprisingly good

I didn't have great expectations, but I ended up enjoying it. A bit of meta-cinema that might seem forced at times, but overall good and entertaining; better than 95% of horrors on Netflix.

Thoroughly enjoyed it

This is yet another example where IMDb score doesn't do justice to the film's quality. It is a decent film with proper directing, acting and storyline and a decent twist in the end.

I watched many horror films that got higher scores than this yet they are half as good.

Absolutely recommend it.

Decent flick

Not what I thought, but I liked it. It had all the main elements of horror. By the way, don't forget to watch the post credit scene. It adds a bit more to the story. Again, post credit scene.

Trivia
The story of Osso, Mastrosso, and Carcagnosso is based on an urban legend that is still popular in Italy. The original legend dates back to the 15th century when the brothers were exiled from Spain because they murdered their sister's rapist. The brothers landed off the coast of Favignana, near the Sicilian islands, where they created new social rules and eventually founded three major criminal organizations in Italy: the Cosa Nostra (or the Mafia), the 'Ndrangheta and the Camorra (via La Mafia Uccide Solo d'Estate).
