Yes it's another "creepy kid film" but it's different from what you might expect. It's not another possession or exorcism movie. Though there may be some minor story inconsistencies - perhaps this should be the extended cut and there should be a shorter cut - but for those who watched all the way through this was actually a very clever take on the film and how it evolved.
I'm not sure why so much negativity. Sure Maddy does well as the creepy daughter and it mirrors her strong supporting role in "The Black Phone" but there are other characters and performances to consider - from the father to his closest neighbor to Satan himself. This movie does go into depth and modern horror fans do not seem to like that.
Overall this was a great film and deserves, at minimum, an 8/10 overall - I am rating it 9/10 due to a few minor story inconsistencies.

An awesome movie blending the cult/gore elements with the apocalyptic/punk culture of Mad Max. Great visuals, great fights, and great story. Recommended to all fight film fans!
India Eisley has been known mainly for playing psycho nymphs in horror films and in some dramas, usually with the end result not so satisfying to her characters.
Although directed by a woman, it's not reflective of the #MeToo movement. I feel there's too much time given to showing the mean as strong and overcoming their weaknesses yet leaving the women to struggle with theirs.
Released too late after I Am the Night, which would have saved this film. Adam comes off as a modern Scott Pilgrim and acts alot like Micheal Cera. I'm uncertain if all of the events happen in one weekend; I feel there was a lot cut.
Very thin story. India fans will notice her typical fare in this one - chap-lipped, anorexic sickly pale gloomy and awkward girl with the occasinal nip slips but in an artsy fashion, playing a teen girl despite being an adult herself.
The message is OK because it feels unfinished. I feel you can honestly finish India's character, Alice's story by watching her Lifetime film, "Nanny Cam."
I'm sorry I waited a year for this to be released and only to VOD/streaming for that matter.
Three stars because it tried to deliver a somewhat positive message while also leaving a somber one.
A couple F-bombs, a few very small sex scenes, and few nip-slips, in artsy fashion.
