Perfect? No, but it is very good. One of the best films I have seen recently, this is both surprising and shocking. The fact that this has so far scored averagely on this site at the time of writing - 53% - is also surprising and shocking. This is a well-crafted film that deserves to be watched, especially by horror fans jaded by predictability.

This movie is quite good, I was NOT prepared from the cheesy trailer! I wish they had elevated the movie with a few editing choices (please never use the"rewind" effect, so tacky); if they had it would easily be on par with Black Swan. Still, it stands on its own as a unique and effective dark, twisty tale.

As soon as I saw the reports that multiple people had complained to Netflix that this film had made them physically sick due to its graphic content I knew I would be doing myself a disservice as a horror fan by not checking it out. As normal these reports seem to have been largely exaggerated, this More

There's so much wrong with this movie.. I felt so icky afterwards I wanted to take a shower and cleanse my mind with another viewing of _Booksmart (2019)_, but it was already too late and I had to go to sleep.

**A couple of thoughts:**
- I actually liked the beginning, because I thought this More
