This is a raw, immediate dive into an urban legend, feeling less like a film and more like a harrowing document. Its unsettling found footage style creates a palpable sense of dread and a relentless, intense pursuit of the unknown. It's a visceral, no-frills journey into folk horror that gets under your skin.
