Horroctober day 5 This felt like a more contained version of haunting of hill house and I loved it. I think I can say I like horror films now. This was creepy as shit and I loved it, honestly so smart.  It wasn’t too jump scary it was just insanely creepy and had a really interesting flashback that’s played throughout the film, just like haunting of hill house.  The mirror was so interesting and the ending was perfect. Nothing is resolved at all in fact things are more fucked than before but it was perfect.  I don’t know what it is about stay at home mums losing their mind and attacking their kids but it’s creepy as hell.  Karen Gillan too.  Honestly quite a scary film I really enjoyed it way more than I thought I would have.  8.6/10
