MidnightMaven ā 8/10
āThe concept of aging by day and being young by night was so creepy and unique. The atmosphere was thick with dread, and the lead actress really sold the terror of her situation. Definitely one of the better Filipino horror films I've seen.ā
CinephileCore ā 6/10
āI appreciated the attempt at a more psychological horror, but the pacing felt slow in the middle. The makeup effects for the 'hukluban' form were impressive though. It's worth a watch if you're into folklore-inspired scares.ā
GhoulGurl ā 9/10
āThis movie genuinely unsettled me. The way it plays with identity and the fear of losing yourself to a curse is brilliant. The last act had me on the edge of my seat. A hidden gem for sure!ā
DarkDesires ā 7/10
āSolid horror with a fresh twist. The scares were more psychological than jumpy, which I liked. Some moments dragged a bit, but the overall story and the performances kept me engaged. Glad I gave it a shot.ā
