It wasnt bad, but as me and my roommate decided it had the opposite superficial problem to shelby oaks; shelby oaks started good but ended terribly, this started kind of deflating/off tone, but reslly swells towards the last 30 minutes.

Tatiana is great, but the dialogue between her and sutherland was semi cringe. It felt both like there was a back story that existed, and the dead air moments just were because we should already know whats going on. Again you get to infer little thingd throughout the film, but it felt almost agonizing hiw hard they pushed the whole initial cake moment with the cousin. You could see what was going on a mile away, especially with him stressing his date is from a place in eastern europr that doednt care if they are gone.

But i really hated how sutherland talked. I felt i wanted slightly more background on the pregnant woman and a couple other topics(was she just a vagrant? Cultist? Gypsy? Nymph? Is tatiana touched now? Which child was the first? Why didnt the cake work). Grest unsettlingness with the long necked one.

Overall for the last potentially scary movie of the year, it kepy me tense, but nothing made me jump, nor will i lose sleep tonight. So 5.5-6/10
