It was decent. Though tough to truly gauge with a blindfold on.

All you had to do to enjoy it was to get over the quandary why these powers that can get people to instantly suicide, or turn into murderers, cannot overcome blindfolds that admit some light and buildings.

Once you buy into that, it's totally cool!

It was ok. Not even in my top five favorite horror movies this year.

Hereditary was the best.

I thought it was suspenseful and a bit scary. Better than most horror films these days.
