Plot

A man trapped in an endless sterile subway passageway sets out to find Exit 8. The rules of his quest are simple: do not overlook anything out of the ordinary.

Sinekatalog’s take

A minimalist horror puzzle in which a man loops through an endless station corridor and must spot every small anomaly. The premise is tight, the sound design crawls under the skin, and the unease builds from simple rules. A clever pick for fans of unsettling, game-like cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
