Dark
A disturbed young woman must confront her worst fears when she finds herself trapped alone in a New York City loft during the 2003 blackout.

- Uses the 2003 NYC blackout as a raw, atmospheric backdrop for psychological horror.
- Anchored by a haunting, vulnerable central performance that carries the film’s tension.
- Perfect for fans of minimalist, character-driven dread rather than gore or spectacle.
- Explores loneliness and fear as primal forces — a quiet, intimate thriller in the vein of early Ti West.
