Movie starts out quite interestingly, it had hints of "Stranger Things" and "Parasyte The Maxim" with the creature design and movement. I completely love the way they used it in just the first 20 minutes made me pause everything else and just stare, not sure I even blinked. Lol... It has a great familial feel to it, like a good and hopefully engaging storyline will, if were lucky enough..
