The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window presents a solid premise about two men who can see and handle wandering spirits, focusing more on psychological tension than romance, which caused mismatched expectations for some viewers. While the horror elements and external conflicts feel underdeveloped, the film shines through its exploration of trauma, identity, and the evolving bond between its leads, supported by strong performances and effective visual choices. Despite rushed pacing and uneven character consistency, it delivers a thoughtful reminder that unusual gifts can become strengths when embraced rather than feared.
