Too experimental - Skinamarink review by AER
I'm sorry but I couldn't immerse myself in this mood-horror. It's very abstract and expects a lot from its audience. It may have worked as a 10-minute segment of a VHS anthology but unfortunately at 1hr 40mins it is a very slow and boring experience. I gave it 20 minutes then fast forwarded it for incident. It's eerie and unique but too experimental to connect.

Read the synopsis first. - Skinamarink review by RP
There are elements in this film that make more sense when you have read the synopsis of what it is all about. The confusion of being very young and the sudden departure of adults or adult. But as a horror is just doesn't ever become spooky enough to fully work. There are moments the viewer is hoping for some boring horror cliche but they never come and we are left with distorted camera angles and grainy pictures. Then something could be happening but then doesn't.
A few moments when we go upstairs could have been more chilling. But it doesn't work other than a bit confusing. Oh hang on the synopsis says so that must mean etc etc. Never makes it to interesting enough to care. A good idea that will be on somebodies list of head scratching films. Otherwise a hard watch to keep the mind interested.
