“I really enjoyed the slow-burn atmosphere and the creepy Santeria vibes. It's not your typical slasher—it's more psychological, which I appreciated. The acting is solid, especially Martin Sheen, but the pacing might be too slow for some.”
“For me, this one didn't live up to the hype. The premise is interesting, but the scares are few and far between. I wanted more visceral horror, but it feels more like a thriller with some occult overtones. The ending was a bit anticlimactic.”
“I was genuinely creeped out by the ritualistic elements and the sense of dread that builds throughout. It's a smart horror film that doesn't rely on jump scares. The portrayal of cult mentality is chilling and feels all too real. Definitely underrated.”
“It has its moments of tension and a great atmosphere, but the story feels a bit muddled at times. I liked the psychological angle, but some plot threads were left unresolved. Still, worth a watch for fans of 80s horror with a more cerebral approach.”
