It's all about the atmosphere—really thick and unsettling. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the tension to build slowly, which makes the eventual horror hit harder. The practical effects?

It’s not just about jump scares; it’s about confronting personal demons, and that's what makes it stand out, even if it's not groundbreaking.
