It Needs Eyes is a slow-burn horror that really digs into the mind of a troubled teenager. Rowan's isolation at her aunt's eerie seaside house sets a tone that feels heavy with dread. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to seep in gradually, which makes the eventual descent into madness feel earned rather than rushed.
