Super movie. Norway’s answer to Stranger Things with elements of Natalie Portman’s Black Swan as well.
Wonderfully handled metaphor for the power we give our fears -- especially those that were instilled & nurtured by family. Just incredible.
I couldn’t look away from this movie. Incredible acting, beautiful cinematography, and a heartwrenching story.
Magical realism/psychological horror that keep you on the edge of your seat.
The writing is really on point. It knows just how to evoke the right feelings.
A story about self-acceptance. Wonderfully shot film; ominous, sweet and magnetic.
It's well made and it has some interesting little touches, but this subject matter is SO well trodden it's not to see it as a bit redundant
For those looking for horror with a humanistic perspective and no pointless jump scares -- check this gem out!
Even though the movie isn’t in English, it’s still a very good and interesting watch
Amazing journey of revenge, super violent and a tough watch for sure
