Rich C. @Cordu0702 Apr 18 Absolutely loved this film. Top 5 all time ending in a film. A must watch! See more Gregarious Y @RT74841773 Apr 9 Ending made me gag and almost throw up. Do not recommend. See more R V. @rvalerio Jan 12 Not worth watching. Weird ending. See more Blackbird Broken Wing T @Lilw0lf Dec 10 (SPOILERS!!) There are some pacing issues and times where the non-familial characters actions frustrate me but over all this is a decent watch. The real saving grace for me is the aspect of cannibalism that I rarely see touched on in horror movies. Kuru, a fatal prion disease that is acquired via cannibalism is the jumping off point of the film as it is the thing that kills the mother and sets off the rest of the events in the movie. The way this illness becomes the reason this family continues their cannibalistic practice is fascinating. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts. The father isn't wrong that there is a curse on their bloodline but what he fails to see is the curse is one of their own making. Actions that first come about as a means of desperate survival are rationalized to the point that the action that once saved the family is continued even when it becomes the reason they are dying. See more Lúcio Leonardo P @Lucio 10/28/2024 With an slow story, director Jim Mickle doesn't know if he wants to make a dramatic and horrendous thriller or if he wants a trashy horror, and this indecision makes us lose interest in how this film will end. Apart from the protagonists Julia Garner and Ambyr Childers, we have a very bad performance from the cast and, as was not to be missed, we also have plot holes and direction flaws. However, the ending of this film may surprise you! I was there, thanking the gods for the approaching end, when the last 2 minutes entered and it came to my mind: “we are what we are…” See more Georgan G @RT98616417 05/18/2024 Great acting in a well done scary plot filled with gore & horror. I could not take my eyes off the screen. Even if you are not a fan of the horror genre, this is worth your time. See more Read all reviews
