Unseen

About This Movie

Unseen (2023) is an intriguing blend of horror and mystery that plays with tension in unique ways. The premise is simple yet effective – a near-blind woman, Emily, relies on Sam, her friend, to guide her through a terrifying situation. The use of video call as a lifeline adds an interesting layer to the storytelling. Yoko Okumura crafts a tight atmosphere that really pulls you in, using shadows and sound design to enhance the fear factor. The performances are solid, especially from the leads, who manage to convey a lot with minimal visuals. What struck me most is how it keeps you guessing, not just about the plot but about the characters themselves. It's not your typical slasher fare, that's for sure.
