Reviews:

“Restraint authors a story that is beautifully filmed and depicted with a lovely attention to detail, but a story that will leave viewers emotionally raw. In this manner, the film is a bridge between classic concepts in literature and modern day horrors, one that proves that some themes are truly timeless.” Cryptic Rock
