Essay
Eye contact definitely deserves a 5 stars rating for how scary and suspenseful it was.
To start off, this film was very entertaining and constantly kept my on the edge of my seat. I don’t know what the character’s names were but there were only two, a lady and a black shadow of a man. The setting in the beginning is in a jogging trail but then goes to a light house and even at the woman’s house. The woman was just jogging at first but then noticed she was being followed. This definitely creeped me out because I had to re watch the lighthouse seen where the lady looks down from the top and see’s the shadow man, because at first I didn’t see
him.
One of the techniques was an unreliable narrator because we only seen the point of view of the jogger, if it was from the shadow it wouldn’t be suspenseful.
