Marco L @decatur555 Oct 22, 2026 A solid but much more modest Stephen King adaptation than my first reaction suggested. The premise is interesting: an isolated farm, a broken family, a horrible decision and guilt slowly rotting everything from within. Its best quality is the atmosphere: soil, dust, darkness, poverty, silence and rats create a strong sense of rural moral decay. Thomas Jane is convincing as a stubborn, closed man trapped by his own crime, and the film works best when the horror becomes internal punishment rather than cheap scares. I also like the way Wilfred manipulates Henry, making the father’s guilt much heavier than the son’s. But it is slow, somewhat stretched and quite predictable, and the material might have worked better in a shorter format. It has memorable images and a good sense of guilt buried under the land, but not enough intensity or emotional force to be great. Interesting, atmospheric and dignified, yes; exceptional, definitely not. See more Hunter U @RT85350068 Oct 15, 2026 Absolutely cinema!! Like the Stephen King’s book, also the suspense, gore, lore… are heavy and hard. See more James M @Jimmy99 Oct 10, 2026 I had good expectations for this movie based on the critics scores. However, I found this slow in an uninteresting way. There were no redeeming characters. It was gross in an unnecessary fashion. It makes you feel sad for everyone and each animal. I am guessing that the critics must have been trying to kiss up to Steven King and this director with their reviews. I can find no other explanation for the high ratings.
