It’s this mix of horror and raw emotion that sets it apart. The pacing feels deliberate, giving you time to really sit with the character's turmoil. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively, enhancing the surreal quality of his hallucinations. The performances are solid, especially in how they convey the internal struggle with loss and depression. The film thrives on its unsettling tone, offering a unique interpretation of how our demons can manifest when we least expect it.
