We all know about the wild story of the megahit Obsession and the linear space horror of Backrooms. Lately, everyone’s been buzzing about the near-perfectly scored Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. But now, there’s a new entry to talk about with a sky-high Rotten Tomatoes score.The film is It Ends, a low-budget horror film that, in some ways, moves beyond the genre.
