• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

this was a bit insane due to the incest plot line and the plot in general tbh. a little bit repetitive and sometimes unintentionally funny, but also managed to keep things tense and atmospheric. thoroughly enjoyed for what it is !!
