The perils that emerge create a great deal of tension, but despite the horror film flavor, this is not a graphically violent film.

The spirit of Kubrick looms large here—not just in the basic plot architecture, but also in the eerie stillness of the compositions, the balletic motion of model machinery, and the majestic swell of Bear McCreary’s score.

Det är ett stillsamt, obehagligt och rätt dystert litet thrillerdrama som sakta vaggar in åskådaren i historien.
