[6.75/10] Mara (2018)

Mara (2018)

Quick Review: Surprisingly creepy, often scary and well-crafted, despite the tight budget and big production delay, "Mara" is a finely put together crime horror dealing with the morbid mythology behind sleep paralysis, and does it effectively enough to give you plenty of big chills as the gripping story develops. Kurylenko leads the film convincingly enough with her emotive turn, and Botet is yet again horrifying to look at in his utterly frightening transformation as the vicious sleep demon.

I'll look for it then. I can't think of another film that deals with sleep paralysis.

I think there's one more, but I haven't seen it.
