It's horror in the same way Under the Skin (2013) was horror. It's slow, deliberate, a little unsettling, and quite confusing, and thematically there's quite a lot of overlap. People who say "it's not horror" as if it were a bad thing were in the wrong place from the beginning.
You Wont Be Alone slithers between layers of conscious thought while beguiling you with its unaffected and brutal beauty. My primary complaint might be that Noomi Rapace is in too briefly. The way she melds into the "character" who came before her is seamless, her understated wonder is infectious; I would have liked to stay with her a little longer. But Alice Englert is a strong screen presence to end the film with. And I can't remember her delivering one line of dialogue...
A lot of people will hate this and I understand why. I guess you won't know til you try it.
