The found footage style, with a camcorder in hand, heightens the tension as a group of friends confronts the dark echoes of their past. The pacing is uneven at times, but it feeds into the unsettling vibe, allowing moments of dread to build up before crashing into chaos. The performances are raw, reflecting genuine fear as they face their own guilt and the terror that ensues.
