Tap the bar for a whole number, drag it for halves. The full scorecard — fear, gore, atmosphere, intensity — is further down.

Trapped on her family’s isolated farm, Pearl must tend to her ailing father under the bitter and overbearing watch of her devout mother. Lusting for a glamorous life like she’s seen in the movies, Pearl’s ambitions, temptations, and repressions collide.
