I do think it would be interesting to see a version where something like this goes well.
It’s also at times a rare-these-days Paperback Gothic Cover movie with a lot of creeping around a big dark house in a nightdress carrying a candle.
Also the second film I’ve seen this year starring Sydney Sweeney and both have birds hitting windows at one point, though it’s only important in the other one, here it’s a jumpscare that kind of deflates the atmosphere for a moment.
Trailers include The First Omen, great trailer for a film that has some distinct overlap here and the problem of being a prequel so will lose a lot of the uncertainty in comparison. And Abigail, yay! And Tarot, boo.
Spoilery bit
Speaking as an agnostic, since religious horror so often involves religious people being horrible, I liked that Cecilia kept her faith and denied them.
