    Funny, entertaining and zany; my boyfriend and I really enjoyed it, made me tear up because I love my cat so much. Also incorporates a blend of my two favourite things: cats and weed lol

    ★★★★½

    Most horror films fail to frighten me anymore, this film did. I recognised her feelings of fear all too well, as I’m sure a lot of women did when watching this: that sickly, panicked feeling when you realise a man cannot be trusted… and that you’re in danger. That’s true horror. Amazingly depicted.

    Too many people do not understand that this is more than just a horror film, but also a profound social commentary on the treatment of women. They are not only under the shadow of the entity, but also of oppression. Therefore I don’t think it can be called a carbon copy of the babadook, that dismissive label discredits everything else the film is about.

    Not to be flippant but I’m tired of everyone claiming every b&w film to be a ‘masterpiece’ just because it’s old. That’s why isn’t it. Be fr.
