Caveat poster

Why people love it

Caveat (2021) stuck because it commits to its horror premise without apologizing—viewers remember set pieces and momentum as much as plot. Damian McCarthy's control of tone keeps the ride coherent. The horror and mystery blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
