The pacing is a bit slow, but it really lets the tension build, almost like a ticking clock in the background. The atmosphere is heavy, layered with a sense of dread that creeps in subtly. There's a minimalistic approach to the practical effects, which ups the realism, making every little moment feel more impactful.
