So, 'The Trial of a Salesman' dives deep into the eerie realm of ambition gone wrong. It’s this unsettling blend of horror that creeps up on you, starting with Bernard’s naive enthusiasm. The pacing is deliberate, almost suffocating at times, building tension as he films these training videos. The atmosphere? Thick with dread. You can feel the walls closing in on him. The practical effects stand out too; they add a grittiness that’s often missing in modern horror. The performances are raw and engaging, especially Bernard’s descent into despair. It's not your typical horror flick, but there's a haunting commentary on ambition and the lengths one might go to achieve it. Definitely something to reflect on long after the credits roll.
