They named the dog Indy...
The director achieves the tour de force of having a dog as his main actor. He uses his own dog, Indy. Yes, he named the dog Indy. And the result is impressive. The acting, not the name. The downside of this is, dogs don't really pretend. For one who speaks fluent canine, Indy's behaviour or mood are often incongruent with the purported situation. Well, not when reacting to the actor's feigned distress. Indy really is a good boy. Fun part is, one can guess how the director got his dog to act. As a (horror) movie, it's atmospheric, well shot and decently scripted. Not much acting or dialog, obviously. It does have the obligatory naked shower scene, though. And the dream sequence scare jump. It was apparently done on a tiny budget, which shows in the photography, and shooting from the dog's point of view is a tad gimmicky. The short run-time helps it not getting tedious. Pleasant movie. Don't watch with the little ones, unless you want to have one of the complicated discussions.

Traditional values with tiny woke element
Pretty good movie. Better than the second and the third ones of Conjuring movies. Woke stuff is limited to overrepresented diversity for background roles, and doesn't really bother me. A lot of traditional values, which felt nice (family, traditions, church, etc.), so I'd say it has much more anti-woke than woke. Pretty wholesome. Am I satisfied with movie? Yes.

Utter woke garbage. Lead character is bi and has a pointless random lesbian sex scene in an airport bathroom. The lesbian podcaster is a completely pointless character that serves no purpose to the script other than to get that DEI point. All the cops are corrupt and bad. Julia makes a statement that nostalgia is overrated and one of the characters says F the 4th of July. The acting is average at best, the plot makes no sense and can't decide if it wants to be a sequel or a remake. The kills are lame and unoriginal. All the male characters are either stupid or bad, while the females are smart and good. The OG characters all look bored and much older than they actually are. Speaking of which the originals had the group as teenagers who partied and made a terrible decision after having an accident with someone crossing the road. Here they seem to be in their late 20's early 30's who are actively in the middle of the road in front of cars just being assholes and cause an accident that kills someone and they still so the wrong thing. These aren't dumb kids they are adults that know better. Skip this unnecessary woke garbage and watch the originals instead. Warning spoilers follow... The character assassination they did with Ray is disgusting and completely against character with who he was in the originals. This entire movie is one big girl power nonsense and they just couldn't have a male be good. The female killer claims she is just a strong empowered woman chasing her destiny. There is literally 1 meaningless throwaway female character death in the entire movie and every single male character is killed. The large muscular men are easily killed with no problem yet the smaller females always manage to fight the killer off and get away.

Degeneracy 101
All men are bad, a doormat, a deadbeat dad, a super narcissist, a rapist, a pdfile. + rainbow stuff, of course. Avoid.
