The characters also follow typical horror movie tropes of people going to investigate spaces and rooms they definitely should stay the hell away from. You do wonder why the hell someone is being so awkward as to take their whole laptop with them into another room, but the contrivance is actually explained – they want their friends on the zoom feed to see what they're seeing because they don't want to be alone. Writer-director Rob Savage cleverly uses the unsteady point of view of a computer or phone camera to play up the lurking suspense of navigating a dark corridor, waiting for something to jump out at you.
Things slowly go awry, and by the time the friends realise they're in deep trouble, it's already too late for all of them. The result is a fun if predictable horror movie that only runs for 55 minutes.
