While it's not exactly new, this movie offers an interesting portrayal of teenagers dealing with their parents mental illness and doesn't use the typical demon mythology which for a horror flick feels refreshing.
Overall the movie is rooted in realism and the acting is spot on. The way some scenes quickly shift from uneasy to eerie actions is quite clever and reflects the mother's behavior gradually becoming more irrational. I found the daughter's reaction to these scenes to be very realistic, combining disgust, anger, helplessness but empathy.
