This movie had good acting, good cinematography, decent music, and the makings of a good story. Unfortunately the "story" is all sizzle without the steak. The story is confusing, never resolves in a satisfying way, and leaves the viewer trying to figure out what the hell was going on. It wants to create mystery like The VVitch but is nowhere near the sophistication in terms of writing and layers that the VVitch has going for it. If the VVitch is a 10 this is only half as good and trust me Im being generous. One other thing of annoyance is the way the characters, especially Diego, are ALWAYS so non-compliant when told to do something. The boy Diego never listens to his mom when she tells him to do something. He never listens to his dad. The mom doesn't listen to the dad or the son. The dad doesnt listen to the mom or the son. This constant and stupid defiance is exhausting. I hate people that don't listen! Anyways its worth a watch but keep expectations LOW.

Good performances, especially from the kid, who is desperately trying to make sense of it all, and to protect his mother. Also about how the safety measures that we erect around us could end up hurting us in preventing healthy growth.

If you consider disparaging...depression...and dislocation a horror movie, then this one's for you. While the acting was quite good...the story line just gives you an Ill feeling. Not my cup of tea.

Brilliantly written, acted, and produced. A simple story in a modest but effective setting that delivers an engaging, at times disturbing, insight into the frailty of the human mind. More psychologically unsettling than scary.

They say sometimes less is better, but in this case, I wish there was more.

The setting, cinematography, music and even the acting is good, but at the end all I can say is: What was going on? Was it a ghost? Was it a creature? Was it a product of their imaginations? Was the mother crazy? What the hell was happening?

A very good suspense and drama-driven movie but with a very unsatisfying ending.

I reminded me of The Babadook (which scared the hell out of me by showing nothing), or the VVitch, which was actually scary.
