'Fréwaka' Review: Grim Folk Horror From Ireland

Before you know it, summer will be upon us. And then comes autumn, which some also call "the spooky season." In other words, the infamous Shudder streamer is here to remind you that, since we're already "Halfway to Halloween" (as their current programming calls it), why not celebrate the milestone with vintage Irish folk horror?
