User Reviews
“The premise drew me in, and the atmosphere did not disappoint. The killer's presence is genuinely unsettling, and Angel's PTSD is portrayed with raw intensity. It's not perfect—some pacing issues in the middle—but the final act is a gut punch. Definitely worth a watch for horror fans.”
“This one surprised me. The nightmares add a psychological layer that elevates it beyond a simple home invasion flick. The kills are brutal and efficient, and the feeling of helplessness is palpable. I was on the edge of my seat for most of it.”
“I wanted to like it more. The acting is spotty in places, and the dream sequences got repetitive. The villain's reveal felt a bit underwhelming for me. It has its moments of tension, but I found myself checking the time. Not a bad way to kill an evening, but not a standout.”
“A hidden gem! The director really knows how to build dread. I loved the way the nightmares bleed into reality—it kept me guessing what was real. The final act is relentless and cathartic. This is the kind of horror that stays with you. Highly recommended!”
