A Dark Song

Slow burn, stressful, uses religious horror to traverse the messy path of grief, past rage and vengeance to forgiveness and appealing (literally) to one’s better angels.

The most realistic rendering of occult practice I’ve ever seen on screen - I get what some people are saying about the ending, but in the context of the film it was fine.

slow and steady horror leaning well into the uncomfortable.

There is a lot of craftsmanship on display here, but all the positive reviews didn’t save this one for me. All the buildup never went anywhere and it felt pretty flat at the end.
