It was pretty good. My only complaint is that 15 of the last 20 min of the movie is just constant screaming.

This movie lures you in with its fun music and jokes in the beginning and when you realize something is wrong it's already too late. You are trapped. Like all the others. I never really could predict what will happen and the longer you are in there the harder it gets. So many triggers and phobias are served. The brutality is not for the tender-hearted.

The Queen does not hesitate.

Great atmosphere and pacing, the cast makes a pretty good job and the soundtrack is on point. The short runtime of this movie makes it a perfect evening watch, with many surprises. But I think it wouldn't have hurt to make it a little bit longer and not rushing the ending. In general some things could have been told a bit different I guess but overall I had a really good time. It's scary, feels fresh (even if it is a remake) and did not bore me one bit.

[Sitges FF] The collaboration Joko Anwar Kimo Stamboel offers one of the best Asian horror films. Excessive and bloody, the direction of Stamboel is more balanced than Anwar usually has, and this "classicism" fits better. The constant of that past in which terrible events are hidden, the revenge of the dead, the scar of evil that marks the characters, is well developed. And the gore feast is more assured than ever.

I didn't enjoy this that much. Reminds me of Evil Dead but more chaotic (not in a good way) and absurd.
