Forced to hide out at a state of the art smart home, a young woman on the run is terrorized by ROMI, its sinister digital assistant.

Why it matters

A claustrophobic techno-thriller that twists smart home paranoia into a tense, modern ghost story.

  • ROMI’s sinister AI taps into contemporary fears about surveillance and digital control with unnerving precision.
  • Tight, minimalist setting ratchets tension, turning every smart device into a potential threat.
  • Perfect for fans of tech-horror like *Upgrade* or *Cam*, blending glitchy digital menace with psychological dread.
  • While the narrative sometimes leans on familiar tropes, the film’s atmosphere and sound design keep the pulse racing.
