The pacing is clever, slowly building tension and dread while keeping you guessing about what’s truly at stake. The practical effects are notable, adding a tangible quality to the horror elements that digital effects often lack. The performances, especially from the lead, are sharp and layered, drawing you deeper into the eerie world they've created.
