This movie is honestly underrated. I accidentally came across this, and Its a master combination of horror and urban legends unfolding.
It beautifully crafts the dark side of alchemy and the philosopher's stone. The very concept of VITRIOL or as above so below is so rich and gives rise to so many questions.
It skillfully depicts the gravity of faith and acceptance.
Speaking for myself I learnt a lot of things from this movie. Which makes me wanna explore more of this genre. A masterpiece if I may say so.
It is a must watch. I for one need to watch it again to really grasp the essence of it, and register all the historical info given all over.
A big thumbs up👍. DO NOT GO BY THE RATINGS PEOPLE.
