Gaslighter is one of those films that creeps under your skin in a subtle way. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and it plays with the viewer's mind. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really soak in the woman's growing unease, especially as she navigates her darkened home with only her boyfriend's voice to guide her. There's something chilling about the way the house feels alive, almost a character in its own right. Practical effects are minimal but effective, relying on sound and shadows to build dread. The performances, especially from the lead, feel genuine and grounded, which makes the descent into paranoia all the more unsettling. It’s a nice take on the gaslighting theme that keeps you guessing about what's real and what's not.
