It has a superb premise that begs for a more ambitious framework, both formally and psychologically... Several images are chilling and elegant, such as when we see an old hag rising behind Roger with a shotgun as he peers into a closet, or when Roger smashes a bathroom mirror to reveal a pitch-black gateway to the Vietnam of his fevered nightmares. But there’s quite a bit of filler.
