Directing style
Tjahjanto constructs suffocating, night-bound interior spaces dominated by a tense, ominous mood and a shallow depth of field that keeps the focus tight on the characters. Visual tension is built primarily at eye-level, using medium shots and closeups that isolate subjects within a cool, desaturated color grade punctuated by deep crimson, dark teal, and sickly green tones. Lighting relies heavily on harsh, localized sources like practical fixtures and fluorescent tubes, casting sharp shadows that amplify the oppressive atmosphere of his action and horror frames.
