Damian Mc Carthy has crafted one of the year’s most delightfully spine-tingling horror films, a supernatural whodunit that’s equal parts EC Comics and Edgar Allan Poe in its high-speed collision of cursed curios, haunted houses, restless spirits, and murder mysteries. —-

Harnessing an atmosphere of slow-creeping dread through evocative lighting and immersive sound design, even as his story rattles through clever setups and nerve-jangling scares at a ferocious pace, Mc Carthy has constructed a midnight movie meant to be experienced with a crowd.”
