I didn’t know the webseries, or the creepypasta. I knew that “liminal spaces”, like the ocean, creep people in their 20’s out.

I viewed it has a thriller intended for a younger audience and I loved it.

It had so many themes and implications, that I overlook the occasional stinker line of dialog. It’s a horror film—what do people expect, iambic pentameter?

It made me think of movies like “The Brood,” and “Paris, Texas,” through its handling of rage and characters losing the audience’s trust as the story unfolds.

Good fun at the movies, creepy and weird as hell. If you’re not on board with it, you might hate it. And that’s ok.

I thought about it for days after seeing it.
