Sinekatalog’s take
Hippie students move into a big old house in the woods in Austin, and something else is influencing them. An experimental allegory from a famous horror director's early days. Rough and hazy, interesting mostly for curious fans of his career.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
