Review #282: Trap (2024)
Gabe's Supplemental Horror Review #5 - Trap (2024) This is a difficult movie to begin talking about, because of the nature of twists in movies. And since this is an M.

The cinematography was chilling and unique, with a specific head-on perspective used whenever the main character is putting on his "dad face" that never failed to catch me off guard. The pacing is phenomenal, the characters were likable and believa...
