- Duration: Over two hours

The town of Maybrook is divided by the puzzle of the fate of a group of kids from the identical school grade who rose simultaneously in the dark and ran into the darkness.

When the conclusion arrives, it feels predictable yet exciting, perfectly timed to counter potential criticisms of “That’s it?”. Yet as the horror-movie high, there are remaining uncertainties about the specific purpose this story needed a multi-perspective cast.
