Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone nostalgic for their awkward years and people who like to watch through their fingers. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. If you loved Fear Street: 1994, start here.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 24 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.
Adela is a young woman who seemed to be cursed from birth. Now a teenager, she begins to show signs of strange abilities which grow stronger as she is bullied.
