Hokum Review | The Fairytale Horror

Hokum surprised me. Going in, the trailer sells this as a faster-paced horror film, but what we actually get is a slow-burn fairytale horror.

This leans way more into mystery than outright horror, with unsettling moments sprinkled throughout instead of constant scares. The atmosphere and style carry this movie, creating a story that feels like a dark bedtime story slowly unraveling.

There are some plot holes, but they never fully pull you out of the experience. Hokum is more about the feeling.

We need some more horror like this.
