🎬 MovieFinder's Take

"Перебежчик" (1980) knows its genre roots but adds something of its own to the formula.

Genre fans — required viewing. Light sleepers — approach with caution.

For fans of dark cinema who want not just a scare, but something to carry home.

Director: Peter Medak

Viewing atmosphere: late night when the house goes quiet and every creak feels meaningful.
