The atmosphere is thick with tension, almost palpable, as the city itself becomes a character. There’s this gradual build-up, where the usual mundane actions take on a much darker significance. The performances are solid, capturing the essence of anxiety and uncertainty. The practical effects are subtle, enhancing the unsettling vibe without overshadowing the narrative.
