The atmosphere is dark and gritty, reflecting the desperation of the characters involved. You’ll appreciate the practical effects that add a certain rawness to the film, and there’s something to be said about the performances—the forensic doctor’s plight is gripping, and the gym teacher's determination adds an unexpected layer of heroism.
