Nails

Nails (2017) is a horror-mystery that effectively leverages the protagonist's extreme vulnerability and isolation. The audience primarily experiences **Fear** and **Anxiety** due to Dana's paralysis and inability to communicate, creating a constant sense of dread and helplessness as she's tormented by a perceived entity. The film is inherently **Disturbing** given its premise of being trapped within one's own body and the psychological horror elements. **Curiosity** and **Anticipation** are high as the audience, like Dana, tries to discern if "Nails" is real or a manifestation of her deteriorating mental state, building suspense towards revelations and scares. **Sadness** and **Empathy** are also significant, stemming from Dana's tragic accident, her disbelieved pleas, and the disintegration of her personal life.
