Description: A claustrophobic symphony of dread, "The Dorm" (2014) isn't just a horror film; it's a visceral exploration of isolation and the insidious creep of paranoia. The film masterfully uses the confines of its setting – a seemingly innocuous college dormitory – to amplify the growing unease, transforming familiar spaces into breeding grounds for fear. What initially feels like a standard thriller quickly evolves into a chilling descent into the protagonist's fractured psyche, leaving the viewer questioning the lines between reality and delusion. The unsettling atmosphere, built through masterful sound design and unsettling visuals, lingers long after the credits roll, prompting a profound reflection on the fragility of sanity and the power of suggestion. This is not a jump-scare fest; it's a slow burn that ignites a fire in the soul.
