3.5
A really effective, depraved horror. Poetically written - but I didn’t find the main character’s obsession with vultures that believable, as we’re thrust into extreme thoughts from the start. Would’ve been more believable if the descent into obsession was slower, so it felt less like a gross-out horror that just intended to shock.
