Being from VA, was excited that it was set in the Appalachians of Virginia. The premise and summary had potential. For some reason I didn’t like the story telling. The creepy early scenes weren’t that creepy. The main character having left earlier for normalcy, then returning to the backwards town seemed very cliche.
The superstitious mother (town witch) was a bit over the top. Her machinations were supposed to harbor fear and foreboding, but came across as campy.
Renewing or reintroducing old town acquaintances was Lifetime movie’ish. I couldn’t finish.
