Directing style
Cluff establishes a tense, ominous atmosphere by setting his horror narratives almost exclusively within dark, night-time interiors lit primarily by practical fixtures and the faint glow of screens. He favors eye-level medium shots and closeups rendered with an exceptionally shallow depth of field, keeping the focus tight on characters while isolating them against murky, obscured backgrounds. The visual palette is heavily desaturated and anchored in cool, dark tones, utilizing deep charcoals, slate blues, and muddy earth tones to evoke a pervasive sense of loneliness.
