56% Informative

Starve Acre is not a failure, but the strength of the film is capped, mainly by not going far enough.

Adapting the 2019 novel by Andrew Michael Hurley , writer-director Daniel Kokotajlo has nudged this only partway towards horror, framing it intelligently as a subdued and shivery landscape study.
