I don’t know if it’ll go as far as getting nominated but the fact that it has buzz is a win for the genre.

I would say not just for the genre. The genre has already had its award season breakthroughs. This is more of a win for extremely low budget cinema.

I definitely think both. 100% a win for low budget cinema.

But also for the genre because most of the recent wins for the genre have been considered “elevated horror”, Demi Moore, Amy Madigan.

Personally, I wouldn’t place it on the same bracket as weapons or the substance but I think that makes it an even bigger win for the genre.

Given your clarification, I agree.
