Directed and written by Michael Shanks, the film explores the dynamics of a long-term couple whose relationship is faltering. In an attempt to rekindle their connection, they move to the countryside, only to encounter a supernatural event that tests their bond.
The film received an enthusiastic response at Sundance, with audiences reacting with applause, laughter, and moments of discomfort. A review from The Hollywood Reporter highlights Shanks' ability to balance relationship drama with the film's grotesque elements, noting its clever humor derived from social media, weddings, and even an electric saw. The review praises the film for relying on classic horror techniques rather than mere shock value.
