I like the most that the director didn’t bake yet another horror movie, but subtly showed a new open-minded idea. The movie is not predictable. The scenario isn’t like something scary is happening and the main character gradually puts all the pieces together. The film is full of intelligent mystery and has a controversial ending, which divided the viewers.
