Plot written in bullet points.
Why did it feel like chatgpt writing? Nothing was explained, nothing was developed, nothing was truly connected. What happened? Why it happened? Don’t know. Sometimes it’s fine, but only when the horror does not pretend to have a plot, but here - they tried to fool me.
They gave me nothing except for a decent set up. But I feel like I only have bullet points of who the characters are, what’s the background, and what the plot is about - not a full narrative structure. Female lead with trauma - why, when, how? Senior with unexplained past and motives. Granny with vague goals and even more vague past. Rules of the supernatural that no one understands and cares to explore. Ending that kind of makes sense, but also feels not satisfying at all.
They had the cast and they had the budget, so what happened? It’s 2026 - lake lady with long black hair is not enough anymore. With all the innovative takes and twists in the genre you cannot give bare minimum and be happy with the result.
They tried to make it more fresh with camera work, but some ideas were ill-fitting. That fish lens bird view not only made me feel nauseous, but also it fitted more for a kids movie adventure type of a story.
The performances were good, but the writing for the characters was a mess. Example: Han Su In one second be acting like a true skeptic who only believes what she sees, to then be the first one to act paranoid because of the supernatural events.
Maybe I saw too many horrors in my life, but this one was simply below the average. There were two moments I did enjoy - both in the lake with the ghost attacking/trapping/hunting the characters down. Effective scares, too bad the story itself created zero tension.
