Evie, her older brother Tony, and their mother are walking their beach when she finds an amulet. She starts wearing it and seems to change in personality. It's years later. Evie is a young troubled woman. She and Tony had been separated for many years after they were sent to an orphanage for some reason. She reconnects with her brother and regains her disturbing childhood memories.

This is an English indie horror. It struggles to gain the needed spooky atmosphere. It has the horror music score but daylight indie filming robs it of that horror tone. Still, I like watching a creepy kid in a horror. I don't mind the first act, but then it switches. It's a lot of holding back the story for a slow incremental reveal. It's a little precious with the story and doesn't give it a great payoff.

...is delusional. Sorry to be harsh, but the high ratings are really misleading. This movie will not change your life.

The best parts are the beginning in the early childhood as they kind of set a folk horror stage. Flashing to the future, the lead actress is unappealing. The movie tries, and fails, to tell the story in flashbacks that are unsatisfying. This is not entertainment. It is also not a mental health awareness film. It is just bad.

The cinematography is beautiful, but not nice enough to recommend the film. I can't say that this would appeal to anyone, except for friends of people in the film.

I am a sucker for anything folk horror, so the fact that I almost turned this off about 20 minutes in was surprising.

The action moved at an uncomfortably quick pace that felt awkward and clunky. Come to find out it was just a prelude and it ended up settling into something more interesting. This movie is heavy on conversation and light on the action. They did a good job keeping up the suspense, slowly building up to the climax but nothing really exciting happens until the last 4th of the movie. The ending was also pretty unfulfilling and left you wondering what REALLY happened as not much was really explained. The movie as a whole was shot nicely, edited interestingly and had high picture quality. The acting was also generally successful across the board.

This story definitely had some potential it just felt a bit undercooked. It was a decent experience in total, but definitely on the lower end so I would only loosely recommend this to someone who is partial to folk horror.
