The Wasteland

They say sometimes less is better, but in this case, I wish there was more.

The setting, cinematography, music and even the acting is good, but at the end all I can say is: What was going on? Was it a ghost? Was it a creature? Was it a product of their imaginations? Was the mother crazy? What the hell was happening?

A very good suspense and drama-driven movie but with a very unsatisfying ending.

I reminded me of The Babadook (which scared the hell out of me by showing nothing), or the VVitch, which was actually scary.

Brilliantly written, acted, and produced. A simple story in a modest but effective setting that delivers an engaging, at times disturbing, insight into the frailty of the human mind. More psychologically unsettling than scary.

This movie doesn't have many horror elements, it feels more like a thriller.

Lately the movies that are sold to us as horror end up being something totally different, just like this one, which has a lot of suspense that works. Although the film shows how loneliness can be a terrifying emotional breaking point, it does not have aspects of a horror film, but the suspense it generates by showing how isolation and abandonment can destroy a person's sanity works. The acting is very good, the production design is also good, and the direction conveys the suspense and mystery that the plot describes.

The execution isn't the best, but it's suspenseful and well-done made, so it's effective in terrifying you psychologically for a while.

If you consider disparaging...depression...and dislocation a horror movie, then this one's for you. While the acting was quite good...the story line just gives you an Ill feeling. Not my cup of tea.

80% of the movie is a hysterical mother screaming for her weakling "Diego", absolutely not a must-see, there are plenty of better movies than this snooze-fest.
