Two mysterious women seek refuge at a coastal boarding house, where their hidden past and dangerous secret draw unwanted attention. As the town’s residents become involved, their fragile new life is threatened by forces connected to the women’s long history.

My take

You may enjoy this if you prefer slow, melancholy Gothic vampire tales with strong atmosphere and character drama; Not for you if you want fast horror, frequent scares, or straightforward supernatural action.
