The Lift

2020 · 80 min

A claustrophobic, slow-building dread that turns an ordinary elevator into a portal of mounting paranoia.

Tagline
DON'T GO IN THE LIFT ALONE!
Overview
University student Trang's friend suddenly goes missing after she was last seen playing a ritual game in an elevator. She and her cousin investigate the place where the girl vanished, and get obsessively invested with what might be a door to a terrifying dark world. The exploration gets even darker when they commence a thrilling cat-and-mouse game with someone - or something - that's out to get them.
