🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Fear lives in the details here — in the frame, in the silence, in the pauses between lines. The director knows how to keep the viewer in a state of readiness, muscles tensing on their own.

Worth watching for the atmosphere and the use of space. The ending may disappoint — genre is genre. But the journey there is well-crafted.

For fans of atmospheric horror where dread matters more than fright.

Director: Tom Holland

Best Watched

Viewing atmosphere: At night when it's dark outside. Better with someone — not because it's scary, but because there's something to discuss after.
