Lo is a simple film.
That's not to say that Lo isn't engrossing, engaging, or ambitious. Lo is a very basic story (boy meets girl, girl gets dragged into hell, boy summons demon to save girl) shot in a very basic manner (a black set with a small stage) using a minimal cast and very basic make up and effects, but it conveys itself with such grandeur and largess you forget how constrained it really is.
While I'm generally not a fan of films that are intentionally funny or intentionally "quirky," Lo is an enjoyable, simple experience that hits a lot of good buttons. A pleasant surprise from a film I was expecting to hate.
