Fréwaka is a thoroughly whelming contemporary elevated horror that claws at the walls of mediocrity and even threatens to breakthrough in its final act, but ultimately feels like a retread of everything this genre has been putting out for the last decade with only a minor Irish-lilt to set itself apart from the swathes of similar projects. It's by no means bad, and the finale imagery is unique and unsettling (and I wish there were more of it!) but as a complete package, Fréwaka is unfortunately middling and safe.
