🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director builds tension not through shock, but through feeling — the viewer senses something is wrong long before it becomes obvious. Atmosphere matters more than any plot twist.

This isn't a film for the faint-hearted, nor for seasoned viewers who claim to fear nothing. It exists somewhere between — pressing psychologically rather than physically.

Ideal for fans of psychological horror. Slasher fans should look elsewhere.

Director: Leslie Megahey

Viewing atmosphere: Late in the evening, with two people. Make tea, put away the phone, don't turn on the lights.
