The Breakdown
- Practical effects and single-location dread
- Zero CGI, zero committee script
- Treats audience like adults, no lectures
- Original Spanish cut still the gold standard
- Sequel fatigue hits later entries hard
Side Effects
elevators now feel like death traps, ancestors approve the raw footage

Loved it? Watch 'The Descent' next — same claustrophobic dread, no gimmick.
