"Rabbit Trap" is an atmospheric ghost story that suggests its protagonists' hangups through a series of eerie sounds and suggestive imagery. Instead of focusing on traditional representations of antagonistic malice, the film directs our attention to subtle natural sounds like water dripping in a subterranean cave or the echo of a human voice just around the bend, creating a mood-altering and dread-inducing ambience that impresses throughout.
