A masterclass on how to mix absurd with horror. It has some bits of weird classical music which fits the movie’s atmosphere exceptionally well (the elevator scene literally gave me chills). Acting was top notch, the scenario seemed great until the end, but then it kinda flopped. This movie is all about effect.
