Isolation (2020) is an interesting take on the horror genre, focusing on a man's descent into madness as he locks himself away. The film thrives on a suffocating atmosphere, building tension through minimalistic settings and sound design that keeps you on edge. Pacing is deliberate, letting paranoia simmer as time stretches in his solitude. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, add to the unsettling feel without relying too much on CGI.
