Subscribe to our newsletter Exit 8 director Genki Kawamura says the inspiration for the horror film's unique sound design comes from none other than 1980's The Shining."I paid a lot of respect to Stanley Kubrick and The Shining in this film," Kawamura tells GamesRadar+.

"And when [Danny] goes down the corridor in the tricycle, there was a different sound the tricycle made when it was on wood versus when it was on the carpet.

I think that level of difference really kind of gets under our skin and mentally kind of like corners us, which is what I wanted to do."The movie, based on the indie horror footage title of the same name, follows a young man, known only as The Lost Man (Kazunari Ninomiya) who learns that his girlfriend is pregnant and panics at the idea of becoming a father.

When he gets off the train, he finds himself lost in an endlessly looping corridor.

Much like the game, The Lost Man must proceed to Exit 8 by identifying the anomalies in each corridor, or be sent back to the very beginning ## Editor's Note Stay tuned for more updates as this story develops.
