The fear comes from how raw and personal everything feels. You're not a super-soldier - just a desperate person swinging a hammer in cramped spaces where every hit is loud, messy, and risky. The lo-fi, found-footage presentation makes the violence feel uncomfortably real, and the constant threat of capture turns exploration into a stomach-knotting dare.
