A chillingly inventive social horror film that exposes the unseen terrors of classism in the workplace. Set in a corporate office, Stay Down follows a working-class protagonist—played by Michael Socha—haunted and held down by invisible forces of discrimination, while those around him rise unchecked. Directed by Thomas James with haunting performances from Jo Hartley and Jonathan Hyde, the film mimics a blockbuster trailer, complete with a spectral cover of Radiohead’s No Surprises by Högni and Seil Lien. Its final reveal—“Some horrors aren’t fiction”—turns the genre on its head, confronting viewers with the disturbing realities of social inequality.
