About This Movie

So, we've got this film, 'M' from 2023. The director's a mystery, but it really dives into the psyche of a kid named Marko, who's stuck in this isolated forest with his dad, who’s a real overprotective type. The atmosphere is thick with tension and dread, really pulls you in. There's this constant battle between Marko's loneliness and his curiosity about the Evil Ones his dad warns him about. I’d say the pacing keeps you on edge—there are slow moments that just build this gnawing anxiety. The practical effects, when they surface, are striking. Performances are raw, especially from the kid. It’s not your usual horror fare, there's depth here. Worth a look for sure.

Explores themes of isolation and fear · Interesting use of practical effects · Strong character-driven narrative
