Isolation horror cuts characters off from help, through distance, weather, confinement or silence, so every threat has to be faced alone. No signal. No backup. No way out that doesn't involve going through whatever is out there. Curated isolation horror strips everything down to the essentials and lets the environment do half the work. Distance is its own kind of dread.
