How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A proto-slasher that treats murder as casual, darkly comic chaos where a lakeside property becomes a death trap for anyone who sets foot on it. The film's detached coldness and rapid-fire body count feel more like watching a mechanical bloodletting than experiencing psychological terror.
