The UnReel Take:

Bottom Line: There are some decently creepy moments in this movie. It is a series of stories culminating in one overall plot line. Some stories are scarier than others, but if you are looking for some good jump thrills, you will find them in this horror experience. If you are a seasoned horror fan, it won’t leave you wanting to watch My Little Pony afterward, but the same may not hold true for the casual viewer.

UnReel AR: 7.9

UnReel Category: Supernatural Thriller - The scarier moments in this movie are well done, and may even play on some personal fears of the viewer. Watch this movie strategically with your date, and you may find them in your arms.

Food Pairing: You’ll want some comforting food, and given the mid-western setting and feel, go with barbecue. Perhaps some pulled-pork or brisket sandwiches.

Drink Pairing: Given this is similar to some campfire scary stories, hot chocolate with Rumple-Mintz will both transport you for a more real feel, and comfort you in the scarier scenes.
