This film doesn't break major new ground, but it does inflect well what is often handled poorly in other types of films. First, it treats the confusion of human behaviors well, leaving the open sections with plenty of doubt. Second, it doesn't explode elements with a heavy hammer to reinforce the scares. Third, the human element isn't forgotten in this story. I appreciated the subtlety of the main actor in her portrayal of this misunderstood adolescent as well as the supporting antagonist actor who displayed realistic development. Quiet but with some punches, I look forward to a repeat viewing to gain more into this world and characters.
