While Immaculate delivers a visually engaging and atmospherically eerie experience, it falls short in developing its themes to their full potential, often relying on horror clichés rather than exploring its more intriguing ideas. Sydney Sweeney’s performance stands out, providing a solid backbone to the story, but the film struggles to maintain a consistent mood and ends with a mix of satisfaction and unmet potential. Critics and audiences have offered mixed reviews, appreciating the performance but noting the film’s inability to fully develop its premise.
