the first like 20% ish, i wasn’t too hooked on it and then we get to the tapes and i was so intrigued, didn’t want to put it down. the twist i had a hunch about after a certain part ( no spoilers here ) but i wasn’t entirely sure and i didn’t totally get it right but god damn this ended up being good.
i do think the ending was a tiny bit rushed but i didn’t mind it, movies do the same thing. overall it was great, reminded me a lot of ready or not, which is one of my favorite movies.
