User Reviews
“I really enjoyed the eerie atmosphere and the modern twist on the classic fairy tale. The tension builds slowly but effectively, and the hermit is genuinely creepy. Not perfect, but definitely worth a watch for horror fans.”
“For me, it started strong but lost momentum in the middle. The acting was decent, but the scares were inconsistent. I expected more from Ozon, but it's still an interesting take on the genre.”
“This movie got under my skin. The psychological dread is palpable, and the performances are haunting. It's a slow burn, but if you appreciate atmosphere over jump scares, you'll love it.”
“I found the premise intriguing but the execution a bit uneven. The first half is gripping, but the second half drags. Still, the cinematography and the unsettling vibe kept me watching.”
