      Arkin is wearing black sneakers when he enters the house, then as he's walking through, he comes across a trip wire and it shows the boot of the Collector. Then when Arkin is walking down the stairs into the basement he is wearing some worn brown boots - a total of three different pairs of shoes within 5 minutes.

    TERRIFYING, CREEPY, DISTURBING AND TWISTED.
    Ngl, this movie actually was pretty decent, it was terrifying, creepy, disturbing, and twisted. It had a decent plot. And a very intense sequence to thrills and chills. The first act maybe could have explained the killer more, because we dont get a description of why. But we get a good horror thriller throughout.
