Standout Aspects

Acting

Sisto and Cole's chemistry—tender, toxic, inevitable.

Direction

Galluzzo makes trailer parks feel like purgatory.

Writing

Dialogue so sharp you'll need stitches.

Best for:Solo: When you need to feel something raw and ugly.·Rewatch: Second viewing hits the foreshadowing like a truck.
Heads up:Violence: Sudden brutal acts, mostly off-screen but still visceral.·Emotional: Hope is a trap here. The ending destroys.
