I really enjoyed this film. I would consider it "elevated horror", much like A24 horror films like Hereditary and The Witch. It is a slow burn film, but that is precisely what I love about it. It takes its time to build tension and suspense. This isn't a jumpscare film.
Anyway, I was extremely impressed with the elderly actress, Pilar. She gave out one heck of a performance. Anyone who has ever been a caretaker for an elderly family member will know what I am talking about. The actress who plays Susanna was also very talent. My heart went out to her as I watched her reach her wits end and was teetering to the point of a meltdown. She really conveyed her mental distress.
The only thing I didn't like was the movie poster because it gives away the story and ruins the mystery. They should have used the photo they used for the movie's soundtrack album. But perhaps they felt the poster on imdb would sell more tickets. I just hate it when trailers and the artwork give away the story.
Oh yeah, never mind the reviews that say it's boring. I think they are used to slashers and teen horror popcorn films.
