To begin with, everything is so promising, but by the end you’ve not really learned or experienced much you didn’t have a flavour of half an hour in.

While the emotional mechanics give the horror story some weight, the scares are largely ineffective. Arora peppers in jump scares galore that do little to elicit real fear.

8/10

The story is gripping, the cast goes all in, and the themes are more harrowing than any bloodletting could ever be.

4/5

One can’t escape the feeling that, having established its premise, it doesn’t really know where to go, but this is made up for by the superb central performance and by Koka Singh Arora’s intelligent approach to direction.
