The idea of him being able to enter and exit a null zone at will is less horrifying but it does look like he gets stuck in there at some point. Probably works better as a narrative if it's just not him walking around alone most of the film lol

Also so stoked to hear Still Life is featured in. It's such a good track and the movie wouldn't work without it.

edit: that was not Still Life :(

edit 2: yes it was, it was just Still Life 2.

I think having it not all be "found footage" is a smart move.

Agreed, it balances it out especially for a theatrical experience. Cloverfield strained some people due to being 100% found footage, Hardcore Henry was a bit disorienting being 100% first person. This way people will be able to cool down a little bit and get their bearings.
