"Canadian low-budget horror film Skinamarink is credible". Is that low enough?

“Skinamarink is a low-budget film.” Now we’re getting somewhere!

The funny part about the word incredible is that it doesn't denote quality, so if we go even lower, it can be:

"Canadian low-budget horror film Skinamarink is incredible. " as in "I can not believe someone made something so bad."

I have heard it's batshit but it's up to the viewer whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's supposed to be coming to Shudder in the next few months so I will catch it then.

I have had friends emphatically recommend this movie to me but they also told me like everyone else in the theater walked out😂

I know when I saw the VVitch I could hear general discontentment from the audience. I loved the movie but I don't really know many people I would recommend it to. Even the other big horror fan was turned off because of the marketing of it being the scariest movie ever that A 24 will do. I fear Skinamarink is the same.

Eh people that get wrapped up on that gate keeping aspect of horror is whatever. The VVitch fucking slaps even if it isn’t the scariest thing to ever exist.

I tend to throw a pretty wide net about what I see as horror. I will pretty much include anything that is trying to scare or disturb me but isn't just misery porn.
