This movie really messed with my head. The entire time I had no idea what was real and what was only in Sara's head.
I thought this was just going to be a spooky mystery, but wow was I wrong. The twists kept coming and I never knew what was real and what wasn't.

As for the scare factor, this movie had a few jump scares but overall I wasn't really afraid. Which might be good for those of you who don't like super terrifying films.

I really didn't like Sara's husband, Rob. Because what kind of husband hears their wife going through a crisis and just decides to let her run off to a foreign country alone? He's terrible.

The ending wasn't at all what I expected, which shocked me because I thought I had it all figured out. The ending also crushed my soul a bit so there's that too.

Overall very good movie. A little slow in the beginning but once it picked up I think it was very exciting. 7/10
