I highly suggest not watching this if blood and gore aren’t your thing. That is basically the main point of this movie,that and torture. It’s extremely gory and lots of torture from beginning to end. Keep that in mind,this movie isn’t made for those that aren’t into gore/blood.

A character has a metal blindfold attached to her head for long enough that when it's removed, skin from around her eyes comes with it, but the actual aspect of her eyes are not focused upon and she does not lose the ability to see from this

The demon-like thing that attacks Lucie turns out to be a hallucination of a woman that Lucie saw while she was escaping. Not necessarily a ghost but Lucie is haunted by her.

A decent portion of the film features a character trapped in a basement. It is a large basement, however, the fact that it is underground and there is no exit could make one feel claustrophobic.

This film is extremely sad and cruel, even beyond the violence.
