The Murmuring (E08)

I can see why this particular story was intended to be the conclusion of the entire miniseries. Although the horror element is very stale and wouldn't have been enough on its own, the eighth installment works very well in the portrayal of normal, one-dimensional characters played by well-chosen actors. It's more of a dark relationship drama than a horror movie (and some of the users here can't stomach that – a couple of the reviews on this episode made me downright nauseous), but as an ending to an entire anthology, it's very thought-provoking, functional and with a very human message.

Interesting, unusual story from Guilllermo del Tora's pen caught my attention with a special atmosphere, where the main role is not played by the mystique of a lonely house, but by a flock of birds flying around... and two enthusiastic ornithologists documenting them there. Interesting, slightly mystical piece that has atmosphere and intrigues. (12/01/2022)
