Horror Vault's take

A seemingly ordinary man checks into a hotel room with a methodical, chilling plan — and the razor-sharp conviction that he's thought of everything. When he enlists the company of a call girl named Jackie, the carefully constructed script in his head begins to unravel in deeply unexpected ways. Drenched in 1970s giallo aesthetics and dark absurdist tension, Piercing is a cat-and-mouse thriller where the lines between hunter and hunted blur with every scene. Director Nicolas Pesce crafts something stylishly sinister that revels in discomfort while keeping you guessing who's really in danger.
