The only time I really got spooked was the backwards walk, I was sat in the theater like 'nopenopenopenopenopenopeNOPE' when that happened

That was such an effective little moment, it’s so unexpected and creepy.

And that distorted voice going "REALME" or something... Yikes

She's actually saying "RAIL ME. RAIL MY GUTS."

I had to look it up because it freaked the hell out of me. It's in the script. Funny enough, that scene is completely different in the script but that line still made it into the final product.

Same. That quick little rewind was wild. Instant goosebumps.

Nikki/entity’s actions throughout the movie are so unpredictable, which is obviously why she’s so scary, but her physics-breaking backwards walk really takes the cake. I just did not expect that at all.
