🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a classic paranoid thriller, relying on the unsettling dynamic between landlady and tenant. It explores themes of trust and vulnerability in the digital age, building suspense through mundane interactions that slowly curdle into menace.

What lingers after viewing is a palpable sense of unease about the strangers we invite into our lives, both online and off. — MovieFinder Editorial
