"A bit of an acquired taste, seems to be made in part for the mother daughter team to show off their musical chops, which does make for a good soundtrack and an aesthetically pleasing, if more than a bit jarring and occasionally awkward transition between major story beats by cutting to band practice. I wouldn’t have likely recommended at all if it didn’t actually get quite good in the final act. If a female driven Mandy meets Men with a bit of indie vibes sounds up your alley, check it out."
"I guess I could say I came into this film with high expectations, they were quickly dashed. I love “folk horror” movies such as “the witch” and “midsommar” but I feel like this was ruined by just plain bad acting. For a low budget movie I thought the visuals were beautiful, but that’s my only positive. Too cringy for its own good"
"If you like ‘Midsommer’ or ‘the witch’ then this movie will be up your alley"
