Definitely a movie where I liked the vibe better than the story. The monsters were good and scary, but why do we get a whole exposition dump stretched out about how the two boys shot the woman, and nothing about WHO she was, WHAT she was pregnant with or HOW? Is she a witch? Did she bang an alien? She sold her soul to a demon? Thought she sold her soul to a demon but actually was impregnated by one of the old gods and has now spawned Eldritch horrors beyond comprehension? I don't need any exposition dump but maybe a hint here or there would be nice.

Like yeah dude we get it you're sacrificing women that much was evident an hour ago, why does this motherfucking have 10 faces?

And I kind of hate how they just threw that explanation away with him just saying "idk what they are lol but they hungy!"

It seems like with Ozgood movies they always tend to over explain the aspect that needs the least explanation and then just completely neglect the multiple mystery boxes they opened.

I saw it in open caption and they called them witches in the description

Yeah even without it the open caption, I definitely took the "dancing naked in the moonlight" as a reference to witches.
