How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A visceral descent into domestic horror where the line between demonic possession and paternal cruelty becomes grotesquely blurred. The house is as much a character as the demon, trapping a family in escalating terror both supernatural and terrifyingly human.
