    The combination of raw, unfiltered dialogue and handheld camera, paired with the use of traditional instruments to create an anxiety filled soundtrack, create an amazing picture as a result that stresses the audience and comments on the macabre and dark deeds done in smaller communities and villages, where everyone knows everyone and everything should better stay a secret.

I mean it was okay, definitely the weakest in the X trilogy but it didn't do anything truly special or intriguing.

    Nonetheless, the only good things that I have…
