Conjures a very potent atmosphere of wintertime dread and isolation (reminiscent of Let the Right One In), but otherwise tedious. It simply does not have the emotional or intellectual depth to sustain its glacial pacing and ponderous nature. Every character is slightly stilted and alien, so the one meant to register as enigmatic-tormented-(maybe)-possessed doesn't. She just seems of a part with her peers. And the non-chronological storytelling is coy and ultimately unsatisfying rather than clever.

I loved this one. It has great atmosphere and even though it is a slow burner the results are haunting in the end. The acting isn't stellar overall but the setup is creepy and it delivers gore in the end.

7/10
