The premise is undeniably fascinating: a woman grappling with night terrors and a string of murders at the witching hour. However, as the plot unfolds, it sometimes becomes muddled, losing the tight grip on tension it initially established. The performances are solid, particularly the lead, who brings a raw vulnerability to her role. Yet, I wished for a bit more clarity in the storytelling. The film has its chilling moments, but it left me wanting a deeper exploration of its themes. It’s a decent watch, but not a must-see. Show less
