Edge of Summer

About This Movie

Edge of Summer dives into a hauntingly atmospheric tale where childhood curiosity collides with the eerie remnants of folklore. Set against the backdrop of an abandoned tin mine, the film captures that uncanny feeling of summer innocence tinged with a hint of danger. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to sink into the gentle but unsettling vibes, and the performances from the two young leads feel genuine, channeling that blend of naivety and bravery. I appreciate the practical effects used to evoke the mine's otherworldly qualities—it adds a layer of authenticity that digital often can't match. Overall, it’s a unique exploration of friendship and fear, wrapped in a narrative that lingers long after the credits roll.
