Interesting tension and superb, subtle ending

I wasn't sure I would get into the movie because it seemed a bit pretentious to start. Honestly, I jumped around at first to make sure this wouldn't be a horror movie with loud, sudden scares, so when I saw people talking to each other in nearly every frame, I was intrigued.One clue after another dropped showing up that something was definitely happening and it just got more tense, as we find out there was an incident which happened in this same setting a couple of years before, and now "all the same people" are here again. Whaaa....? There's a cover-up, everyone's cagey.Is the new girl getting set up? Is it a cult? Sex game gone wrong? WTH?? You have to watch all the way through to find out.The pieces came together so slowly and things start to get creepy, then there's a shift that you're not sure about -- was it reality? Was that daydreaming of the past? Was it the future?I love this kind of shiot! Expertly played, creators! Expertly played.Then, the final scene, in flashback -- what really happened in the past -- in secret, from the POV of the woman who was privy to all the information . Yikes! The horror of realizing our girl definitely became part of the game that's been going on the whole time. She's just in on the latest reiteration.Ha Ha -- just excellent. I've been watching a lot of classic "film noir" lately, finding modern stuff very poor on story, and often too reliant on CGI and/or more modern movie magic. This movie was a breath of fresh air because it's one of the few in my recent memory where people are just talking the majority of the time -- Actually, One-on-one in most scenes -- and it's incredibly dramatic.Remember "Get Out?"Like noir, Crime and Drama meeting in the sweet spot. With romance, on the edge. Oh, yeah. That's the stuff.

What?

What a poorly acted excuse for a a movie. What actually was it about? I had no feelings except contempt for all the characters. Why did they do what they? Who knows. Just a psychotic woman with enough money to get away with doing whatever she pleases, I guess. The only thing that I didn't hate was the setting, which is a beautiful location, and the "movie" takes place in autumn. Everything else was random people standing around smoking and talking about the mysterious missing girl. Lark's background story makes no sense, and that's basically the only character development attempted in the entire film.
