ATM
After leaving their company Christmas Party together, David Hargrove and Emily Brandt’s impromptu first date takes an unexpected turn when their coworker, Corey, asks them to make a late-night stop at an ATM. What should be a routine transaction turns into a desperate struggle for survival when an unknown man appears outside the vestibule.
Why it matters
A claustrophobic thriller that traps three coworkers in a glass box of terror, turning a banal errand into a tense fight for survival.
- Minimalist setting amps up the dread—no escape, no backup, just cold glass and a lurking menace.
- The late-night ATM vestibule as a modern urban nightmare taps into fears of vulnerability in everyday spaces.
- Performances lean on naturalistic panic rather than genre tropes, keeping the tension grounded.
- For fans of contained thrillers like *Buried* or *Devil*, it’s a tight, if familiar, survival puzzle with a chill winter vibe.
