As with most films I went into this completely blind and it turned out to be one of my favorites of 2023. While not super original, the acting is top notch, set design is phenomenal, and atmosphere is pretty unsettling at times.

Creepy monster design will make you check the closets tonight. Anyone with kids might find this one tough to watch in some parts.

    I enjoyed it, granted it was also one of the few movies I've been able to see in theater since my son was born so that might have skewed my perspective. It wasn't high art but it was a solid film with some great set pieces. Really only tangentially related to the story but I think that was for the best, as the story relies a little too heavily on the sheer unlikeability of the David Dasmalchian (sp?) character.
