Cuckoo

5
Do you enjoy creepy horror thrillers with a touch of art house sensibility in them? Then may I recommend Cuckoo, a film we saw in the theater but really could have waited for streaming. Excellent trailer tricked us into thinking it would be more creepy and frightening than it actually was. It’s a fine film. Just not as tense or scary as we hoped.

Neon are very good at their marketing campaigns. I haven't seen Cuckoo yet, but I thought the same thing about Longlegs. Touted as the scariest movie in a decade, made to look super creepy in all the promos, and it was just a pretty decent cop thriller in the end, I wouldn't even call it horror.
