Cuckoo is a solid psychological horror film with a unique vibe that sets it apart. It’s weird in a good way, with some creative scares and a few really cool, stylish shots that keep you locked in. The movie knows how to build tension and get under your skin at times, and it definitely has its creepy moments.
The acting is pretty strong across the board, and Hunter gives a believable, emotional performance that helps ground the strange story. The only downside for me was the monster—it didn’t look that scary, and felt a little cheap compared to the rest of the film’s style and tone.
Still, Cuckoo is a fun, unsettling watch that’s worth checking out if you’re into psychological horror with a twist. It’s not perfect, but it sticks with you.
