The CinePearl Take
Director Kensuke Sonomura crafts a moody visual palette that turns every hallway into a character of its own, while the lead—an unknown breakout star—anchors the chaos with a surprisingly nuanced performance. The pacing deliberately drags in the early act, allowing the dread to build before unleashing a series of inventive set‑piece scares. Themes of corporate greed intersecting with ancient vengeance give the film a subtle social undercurrent that elevates it beyond pure jump‑scares.
