Panic in the Attic is an intriguing little gem from 2020. The film’s atmosphere is thick with tension, almost claustrophobic at times, really capturing that sense of dread that often comes with being trapped in a confined space. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to feel the protagonist's anxiety as she navigates her precarious situation. There's a minimalistic approach to practical effects, relying more on suggestion and shadow than on overt horror tropes, which adds to the unsettling tone. The performance of the lead actress stands out; she conveys a raw intensity that pulls you into her fear. It’s definitely a film that plays with themes of isolation and survival, making it distinct in the current indie landscape.
