Épouvante-Horreur, thriller (USA) (4K)
Un formidable huis-clos théâtral, stressant !
Personnages secondaires pas construits et inutiles et le scénario ne m’a pas forcément emballer , sympa mais sans plus , un poil surcoté
Objectivement: 3/10 Subjectivement: 3/10
Another film that was quite tense at the start but then didn't seem to make much sense once the main character was captured. Didn't quite work for me
