Abbey’s Review: This reminds me of Midsommar, although this movie isn’t horror,  because they have similar creativity. It’s colorful, vivid and theatrical. Lots of imagery and symbolisms depicted on every scene. It shows the state of mind through a road trip down memory lane.

Score: 9/10 👍🏻👍🏻

===============================

Abbey’s Review: It’s a whole theory about existence, what happens after death and how life just repeats itself by creating different versions of itself in every generation. A Ghost Story makes you wonder how life will be on the other side. The living will continue with life and move on but will the dead do the same?

Score: 7/10 👍🏻👍🏻
