ARQ

ARQ, as an Action, Sci-Fi, Thriller, primarily elicits strong feelings of Anxiety and Anticipation due to its high-stakes time loop premise and constant threat from masked raiders. The disorienting nature of the time loop heavily contributes to Confusion and Curiosity as the audience tries to piece together the rules and mysteries. Fear is present from the immediate danger, while Excitement and Surprise arise from the action sequences and plot twists inherent in the repetitive, yet evolving, narrative.
