Absentia

 

USA 2011, 90 minutes
Dir. Mike Flanagan
Rating: [M] Violence, offensive language & horror
Genres: Horror

 

Aroview: This creepy investigation into the whereabouts of missing person via a sinister pedestrian tunnel plays its cards close to its chest while resisting to urge to deliver cheap scares or a blood-soaked climax.

Hyped to a surprising degree in horror circles, this adopts a slow-burn approach in the vein of dir. Ti West (HOUSE OF THE DEVIL), however it is blighted somewhat by an inadequate budget, and a first time writer-director-editor who isn't yet in command of all three disciplines.
