Textbook religious horror - a crisis of faith, external threat as internal conflict manifest, an exorcism of a kind - it just happens the textbook is the Talmud. To its credit, the fidelity to the Orthodox Jewish setting and themes appears completely on point, the idea of shemira - with a dead body always in the room - is wonderfully unsettling, and the sound design is excellent (a must for any decent horror). It's too bad it takes far too long to get going.

Netflix subs for this are pretty careless, making it a tough watch.
