Hello, hello. I saw Hokum last Saturday so I figured I'd offer my thoughts. The TLDR version is, this is a haunting tale about the power of guilt in terms of how it shapes the narratives we tell ourselves.

In short, Hokum is a cozy, creepy Irish horror film from Damian McCarthy, starring Adam Scott in one of his most compelling roles yet. In this quick review, I share my spoiler free thoughts up front, then dig into the film’s folklore, guilt, and stranger moments in the spoiler section.
