I had only recently heard about this movie, or at least, only recently paid attention to it. And the premise showed promise. So, in my usual manner, I grabbed my coffee, a couple of snacks (candy canes and chocolate limes, it is Christmas), and curled up to watch.

Nanny Review Conclusion
I might watch it again: This was a real slow burn movie, and a good movie for those who don’t want jump scares or blood and gore horror movies. More psychological, in that the horror is in her mind. It’s strange, awkward, and often felt like a misdirect, as though something more was about to be revealed. An interesting film and an easy watch except if you don’t like spiders, whole scene there you’re gonna want that throw cushion for. I loved the water as the source of the visions, and the unexpected creature in it’s depths.
