An interesting analysis of the purpose of location, specific camera angles and shots and sound.
I'm you identified the added horror in the film and in the real life story of these two girls in that two well brought up high school girls were capable of such a hideous crime. This also reflects their isolation from reality in the claustrophobic and deeply conservative context of 1950's New Zealand...I remember it well!
