It's a movie that I sort of liked at first, and the more I thought about it the more I enjoyed it. I think it was a difficult movie to sit through with some of the graphic nature of the scenes, but the more I stewed the more I enjoyed it.
The pacing is slow. This is a slow burn movie, and I enjoy those. I think, imo, that horror is all about the slow burn.
The acting I thought was pretty solid. The plot points, well, I felt like were somewhat of a retelling of The Wicker Man. But I thought this was much better done.
One of the things I really enjoyed about this was how it made you uneasy about the daytime. Most times when a horror movie flips to a daytime scene, you relax. With this festival never really having a night time, it was hard to know when to untense.
