Throwaway

About This Movie

Throwaway is a unique entry in the horror genre, featuring a really eerie atmosphere that keeps you on edge. Abby, the protagonist, is a bit of a loner, which adds to the film's unsettling vibe. The graveyard shift at a security company just heightens her isolation, and there's something about the way the film plays with time and sleep that feels distinctly disorienting. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively, which is refreshing in a world of CGI overload. The pacing can feel deliberate, almost dreamlike, and there are moments that linger in that uncomfortable space between reality and fear. The performances, particularly from the lead, have a rawness that makes the horror feel personal. It’s a quiet but haunting exploration of vulnerability.
