Steuben County is an intriguing psychological thriller that dives deep into the unraveling mind of its lead. After a breakup, he finds himself in this eerie town, where the atmosphere is thick with unease and paranoia. The pacing is methodically slow, allowing the tension to build gradually, which really enhances the sense of dread. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively, adding to the film's unsettling vibe. It’s very much in line with other psychological horrors like Possessor and She Dies Tomorrow, but it carves its own niche with its focus on the protagonist's mental state. The performances are solid, grounding the surreal elements in a way that feels truly disconcerting. Overall, it’s a distinct experience for those who appreciate the subtleties of psychological horror.
