Ugh. Not that I had high expectations, but I still walked away majorly disappointed. The story starts out promising, though quite similar to The Haunting of Hill House, but fairly quickly devolves into some kind of grossly misogynistic torture porn very clearly reflective of its time period. The ending was pretty dumb too.
Graphic: Blood, Gore, and Torture
Moderate: Suicide
Minor: Animal death
