i cant imagine how this movie got a 62 on rotten tomatos. it might be thr worst film ive ever seen. granted i didnt see the whole thing, but it just sucked from the start regardless so i dont care if they somehow saved it with a great ending. horrid plot, acting, et cetera.

This is the Cthulu Mythos to the core - late in the movie when the 'children' are offered to be shown, they are not, merely an appropriately dark framing shot. The ending is sublime, although I shall not share it - it reflects the confusion of the main character. I am somewhat weary of every protagonist being LGBTQ as is fashionable, but they painted it excellently. If you love HP Lovecraft, 10/10. If you know not who that is, 2/10.
