This is a slow burn movie with some jump scares. The movie starts with the death of a man leaving behind the son (around 10/12) and his step-mother. She has some doubts on keeping the child but innitially she says she will. The boy is not conformed with the dead of the father and becomes quite erratic and "seeing" his father. Innitially nothing major but as the days pass we've got a dead dog, disturb grave of the father among other things. We see the breakdown of the woman and I will say she had a great role on this movie.
About the monster, well it's kind of weird as it's hinted it's a alien being that uses the fears and pain of the family against them.... or isn't?
The story progress and the incidents keep getting worse and the stepmother is thinking about leaving the boy to the friend of the family. The ending is quite gruesome but it ends fast. Julia Brown did a great job and she is very beautiful.
There is no nudity whatsoever - I believe the monster was well done - it's thought provocative and it has a great atmosphere. Pace wise is bad. Writing is not that good as well. Overall a nice addition.
