HorrorHound88 – 8/10
“The atmosphere is thick with tension from start to finish. The lead actress really sells the desperation, and the folk horror elements are genuinely unsettling. One of the better modern films in this niche.”
CinephileChills – 7/10
“Not a jump-scare fest, but the slow burn got under my skin. The ritual scenes are creepy and well-done. It loses a bit of steam in the middle, but the payoff is worth it.”

“I was hooked by the premise but felt the execution was a bit uneven. Some scenes are genuinely creepy, but others dragged. Still, it's a solid entry for those who appreciate slow-burn horror.”
