"Slow, tense, well shot, and deeply sad. Far superior to the awful American ‘Curse of La Llorona’. Rape is discussed (along with some victimblaming), but does not actually appear on screen, thank god. Other atrocities are hinted at but mostly not directly shown. If you’re patient with slower, subtle films, it’s well worth the watch."

"A near-perfect blend of horrors both political and supernatural, while simultaneously working as an ingenious retelling of the classic La Llorona myth. The slow burn pacing won't be for all tastes, but this is a hugely stressful exercise in tension and paranoia, while simultaneously working as a deeply compelling human drama about a disintegrating family. 4.5 out of 5"
