Netflix fans have been left horrified and with "nightmares for days" after watching a new thriller called Tin and Tina.

The harrowing Spanish movie - directed by Rubin Stein - was released on the streaming service recently and is a longer-form adaptation of a 2013 short film of the same name.

The chilling flick is set in 1980s Spain and follows a woman named Lola (Milena Smit) who suffers a miscarriage on her wedding day and is later informed by her doctor that she cannot bear children.

As her depression continues to get worse, she and her husband Adolfo (Jaime Lorente) decide to adopt creepy twins Tin (Carlos González Morollón) and Tina (Anastasia Russo) who follow strict religious teachings.

However, the siblings bring eerie and haunting energy into the newlywed's home as mysterious and violent occurrences begin to take place.

Many viewers took to their social media to share that they were traumatized after watching the 120-minute film. One frightened person said: "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."

Another equally-stunned user wrote: "A movie hasn't creeped me out as much in a while until now, Tin and Tina freaked me tf outtttt, anxiety thru the ** roof."

A third person commented: "Me praying #TinandTina don’t come in my dreams tonight. Can’t even bare to watch the second half whilst the house is so quiet. Why have I done this to myself."

A fourth user chillingly exclaimed: "This Tin and Tina movie is scary. Whatever you inculcate in children at early age tends to stick with them and it's difficult to change their minds."

The movie scored a 50 percent rating with critics on Rotten Tomatoes and a 21 percent audience score, meaning that it was not that popular with viewers.

Film reviewer Chris Joyce - who has the YouTube channel Movies and Munchies - shared his thoughts on the movie, giving it a 3/5 star rating.

"Tin & Tina creates some palpable discomfort and apprehension thanks in no small part to a religiously over-zealous story arc. All four of the leads deliver unsettling performances with behaviors and mannerisms that lead to devastating results," he wrote.

Critic Lee Brown from the Review Geek penned: "Tin & Tina is often uncomfortable to watch, with scenes that will likely turn your stomach. The moment when the children 'cleanse the soul' of the family dog is particularly sickening. But this isn’t a sensational or exploitative film where violent scenes occur because the director likes to shock his audience."

"This is something that is far smarter than usual genre fare and in its tale of two children who are driven to extreme acts because of their innocent belief in God, it is sometimes far more terrifying," he added.

Tin and Tina is now available to watch on Netflix.
