The film drops sharply from its praised climactic confrontation to its divisive ending where all characters die.
Critics praised the film's atmospheric tension-building and strong performances throughout most of its runtime, particularly the climactic family confrontation. However, the bleak ending proved deeply divisive, with many reviewers feeling manipulated rather than moved. The film's biggest weakness was misleading marketing that promised monster horror rather than psychological drama.
