2/5

Macabre, spiteful and all too bleak in its juxtaposition of generations and their transference of guilt.

3/5

Director Tony Krawitz pulls off several unsettling moodshifts, and takes extremely seriously the old-world traditions and superstitions a gorefest like Hostel could only sneer and snigger at.

3/5

A promising drama of alienation that slides into portentousness.

8/10

It boldly moves between realist drama and supernatural thriller, but deliberately walks a tightrope to avoid committing properly to either genre. The result is a film that’s a piece of speculative fiction only if the viewer wants it to be.

2.5/5

Director Tony Krawitz certainly can't be faulted for his ambition, yet, despite some magnificent technical credits, his cinematic adaptation of this controversial book ends up muddled and misguided.

A dark voyage into an unresolved past. Gripping imagery of cruelty, betrayal, superstition and inescapable family guilt

Rather pretentious, but the mood turns out to be captivating enough on the whole.

Intrigante, perturbadora, interesante como buena peli Extranjera. Una trama sicologica que te enferma con el pasar del tiempo. Los errores del pasado tienen consecuencias a largo plazo.

Really? That's how it ended?? It's like the writers couldn't come up with an ending. Ewen Leslie performs brilliantly, as always.
