About
If you like slow-building suspicion and psychological dread, you may enjoy this classic, but Not for you if you want constant jump scares or gore-heavy horror like Halloween or The Shining.
Pros: suspenseful paranoia; strong performances; memorable dread | Cons: slow pacing; light on jumpscares; disturbing subject matter
