🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its chills by relying on the unsettling premise of a real-world aviation legend. It explores the collision between corporate negligence and supernatural reckoning, using the confined space of an aircraft cabin to great effect.

What lingers after the credits is a palpable sense of unease about the hidden histories of everyday objects. The ghost serves less as a simple scare and more as a persistent echo of tragedy demanding witness. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Steven Hilliard Stern

Watch late at night with the lights dimmed to feel the full, creeping dread of its airborne setting.
