"The hour between night and dawn ... when most people die. It is the hour when the sleepless are haunted by their deepest fear, when ghosts and demons are most powerful."
Boxlist takeSerious and otherworldly: an original horror film, slow-burning rather than fast. Best if you like the extraordinary over the everyday.
