Super high highs, but the botched landing holds it back.

Plot
The first three quarters were brilliant, building insane tension and dread, but the third act unravels with noticeable plot holes and a lackluster ending.
Cinematography
Terrifying visual design. The liminal spaces, flickering fluorescent lights, and disorientation were captured perfectly.
Sound
That dreadful, low-hum ambient buzzing and eerie silence were masterfully done.
My Take
Super high highs that almost made it a horror classic, but the botched landing holds it back from greatness. Still a very fun watch for the vibe alone.
