I loved the motif of seals and thought it was very creepy and horrifying when it all started coming together. It was fairly short and I appreciated the brevity. I thought it let the tension grow and maintain without detracting from the story.ย
While there is brief mentions of WW1, this is not a war story and it doesn't affect the plotline very much. The gore and violence weren't too over the top, thankfully.ย
I thought the ending was solid and had a good payoff. I'm glad I went in blind.
