Evoking some unholy cross between the satanic classic Rosemary's Baby and Lucile Hadzihalilovic's uncannily eerie Innocence, with an inky dash of Lost Highway, [Osgood Perkins' film] represents a remarkable debut.

Osgood Perkins impresses - and scares - with his chilly debut feature about young women and dark forces.
