Oh, I really really liked this, and I hope so strongly that there is more to come.

Part of my love is for Scott Snyder's writing, which is usually reliable, especially in shorter series. He does a good job with a really interesting story here. It's a tale about a doomed, unfinished horror film, and a cult that may or may not exist. It's paranoid and unsettling. But really, I'm here for Francavilla's art. I would follow this man to the ends of the earth. I would and will buy anything and everything he ever illustrates. I adore his dark, heavy art, and his work here is absolutely no exception. Give me more.

Not bad at all. The ending had tricked me. Love it. The art style and the story was great. Classic horror and creepy as hell. The vibes were there.
