After seeing the latest Netflix movie to drop on the site, horror aficionados said they were left feeling “disturbed,” even admitting the film gave them “nightmares.”
Now, Netflix has been releasing some seriously scary films on the platform recently, and the latest to hit the streaming service just might be one of the best yet.
The 2013 short film Tin And Tina, which was also directed by Rubin Stein, was expanded upon and made available on the streaming giant last week.
The eerie Spanish film, which takes place in the 1980s, is about a young married couple named Lola and Adolfo who, after suffering a miscarriage, discover they can’t have children.
After struggling with bouts of depression, the pair decide to adopt twins named Tin and Tina from a convent.
Despite one nun warning the couple that “they are unique, special children,” the newlyweds decided to go ahead with the adoption, not thinking anything of it.
In the trailer, the husband tells the wife, “I know what you’re thinking, and they are just too old, and a bit strange.”
However, after everything they’ve been through, the wife argues: “these children need to be loved – same as us, we need love,” adding: “Let us be a family.”
It’s safe to say she goes on to regret her decision.
The twin’s intensely devout religious upbringing causes them to become obsessed with sin, and they slowly threaten to destroy the couple’s lives, thus things begin to take a dark turn for the pair.
Some have likened the film to that of The Orphan, and The Others, with many claiming the twins are even scarier than the sisters in The Shining.
The synopsis reads: “After a traumatic miscarriage, a young couple adopts two peculiar twins from a convent whose obsession with religion soon disturbs the family.”
And it seems the film has gone down well with horror fans, as one Twitter user wrote: “Tin and Tina are literally the scariest children I’ve ever seen in a horror movie.”
A second said: “Watched that Tin and Tina movie last night. It was disturbing and odd. But I think I liked it.”
Someone else commented: “A movie hasn’t creeped me out as much in a while until now, Tin and Tina freaked me tf outtttt, anxiety thru the mf roof.”
While a fourth wrote: “Watched Tin and Tina on Netflix. You think The Shining twins were creepy… you ain’t seen nothing yet. They utterly creeped me out, and I will have nightmares for days.”
“This might not get much attention cuz it’s in Spanish but there’s this new Spanish horror movie on Netflix called Tin and Tina… for any horror fans. It’s worth it and it’s good. Reminds me of The Orphanage, The Others and Goodnight Mommy in some way,” another added.
Some even admitted the new flick gave them “nightmares.”
“I made bebe watch Tin and Tina, and now she is whimpering in her sleep.”
Another disturbed watcher commented: “Watching Tin and Tina, nah those kids never would’ve left the convent. They were creepy from the get-go.”
While another Twitter user added: “OMG these kids gave me goosebumps.”
Are you brave enough to watch it?
