What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Cliff’s decision to remove Abbey from life support directly triggers the central haunting and moral conflict.
Abbey’s spirit targets the living after her coma and death, turning domestic grief into vengeance.
The premise converts Cliff’s guilt and loss into a vengeful haunting rather than a conventional bereavement drama.
The grisly car accident and the appearance of Abbey Thing establish the film’s bodily and disturbing visual register.
