Movies are meant to be entertaining, but that doesn’t always mean sunshine and happy endings. Entertainment comes in all forms, and some fans of the thriller and horror genres find the feeling of tense and uncomfortable scenes give them to be fun. The appeal of films that induce the feeling of claustrophobia is that they make whatever stakes are happening onscreen feel heightened. It becomes more exciting and harder for a viewer to lose interest.Having a character get themselves into a tight spot in a fictional story also helps the audience feel better because they can enjoy the story and know the situation isn’t happening to them. There is also something in the adrenaline one gets when feeling tense or claustrophobic, but then getting the relief when the person escapes the situation, or the movie ends. While these occurrences often happen in horror films, they can happen in any genre of story, which is why fans of these types of films can find a good list of entries to match what they want to watch.Things get worse when the lights begin malfunctioning, which makes the sense of space feel even smaller because no one can see. The stakes keep building up because whenever the lights come on, something terrible has happened to one of those five people. The setting of Devil is perfect for creating a claustrophobic feel, but it only received a 50% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and 6.3/10 from IMDb. Being an M. Night Shyamalan film, it was a good premise, but unfortunately, it was filled with clichés and stereotyped character types that didn’t do much beyond its basic setup.
