It was really good for what it was, however, for a Lord of the Rings (and Peter Jackson) film I definitely expected more. Great artwork, but the dialogue, story building, and overall plot were just lacking in general.

I’m not the biggest fan of “talky” films, especially within the horror genre, but this is an outstanding outlier. The collaboration of dialogue and suspense made this movie all the more captivating and created one of the most genuinely terrifying horror movies i think ive ever seen. Making it all the more scary was the idea that it’s real. There aren’t any supernatural elements at play, it’s not a murder mystery, it’s just a psychotic intellectual extremist and two Mormons whose uncertainty in their beliefs make for a truly horrifying spectacle.
