The master of Italian horror, Lucio Fulci, stars as... Lucio Fulci, a filmmaker with a reputation for gruesome horror films. His body of work has started to plague his mental state, and he is haunted by the grotesque set-pieces his mind has conjured up during his career. His psychiatrist, Egon Schwarz, uses a hypnotised Fulci as an avatar to carry out his own disturbed fantasies, in hopes of ruining the master’s reputation once and for all.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A delirious descent into a filmmaker's fractured mind where reality, nightmares, and career guilt blur together. Fulci playing himself creates a meta-horror experience that's equal parts grotesque, funny, and genuinely disorienting.
