🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director builds tension economically — doesn't waste it, holds it in reserve. The film pins you to your seat methodically, without rushing.
Sustains tension exactly as long as needed. May dip slightly after — but the overall level is good.
For viewers who appreciate intelligent genre work without dumbing down.
Director: Paul Ziller
