Easily one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. How is this movie rated in mid 5s?
I find it really hard to overcome the awe I'm in after watching this masterpiece. Absolutely astounding. Starts really strong, gives off very classic vibe of a forgotten monastery where monks have gone mad...and builds on that. No jumpscares, no pathos. Nothing extremely supernatural, yet full of extremely satisfying, deep content.
Characters are played really well. The craftsmanship behind their costumes, their motivations, their general demeanor - absolutely on point.
Contrary to most recent horrors, I have never chuckled at absurdity of a scene. As a horror lover, that's news to me. Completely griping, shocking, I can recommend it to anyone who loves a good horror that's built on atmosphere of fear, instead of gore or jumpscares. Loved it.
