Video games in everyday life offer the greatest pleasures one can experience in a virtual space. But if you were to become truly trapped within the time and space of a game—where you once had the option to simply switch it off—that place would no longer be one of play, but a site of an endlessly repeating nightmare. Exit 8 is based on the globally popular video game of the same name, with its narrative adhering to the original game’s rule: ‘If you notice any anomalies, turn back the way you came.’ The simple yet claustrophobic setting of a subway passage and the repeated failures to escape draw forth a deep, unsettling terror. Unexpected irregularities intrude, adding new layers of the suspense. This is a bold work that deftly transforms the structure of a game into cinematic framing, and a thriller that will fascinate anyone surviving through the repetitive routines of modern life.
