This film had the potential to be quite good.
Blatant Covid subtext aside (because that's what this whole film centres around) the idea of a monster that stalks its prey through dreams and actively erases them from history is a nice take on a standard formula.
It's acted out well (Beans plays her role well, although if I were her I'd choose a more 'Hollywood' surname), the dialogue isn't terrible and at some points can be quite intriguing, but any time there's anything exciting happening... it's filmed in practically total darkness.
There's just no need for it. Even if the scene has to be in a dark location, there's no excuse for having lighting so poor you can't even see what is happening, and that's about 45-50% of this movie.
I've seen people complain about the ending but I quite liked it, so no complaints there, I just wish u could have SEEN more of the film.
