CriticsCritics: 82
AudienceAudience: 7.7

A frustrated detective investigates a series of gruesome murders in which different people confess but cannot remember committing the crimes. As the cases accumulate, he follows a disturbing trail involving a mysterious stranger and ideas that challenge his understanding of motive, memory, and control.

My take

You may enjoy this if you prefer slow-burning, cerebral crime horror with an eerie mood and open questions; Not for you if you need fast pacing, clear explanations, or a neatly resolved mystery.
