an exercise in violence but the type that comes from once sick and psychotic mind, one that should be in an asylum but its interesting for that to be said, would he do any better?
from what we know, the man came just out of prison but within the narration and what happens on screen, something sinister sits in his mind which he cannot help and years in prison hasn't obviously helped as prison doesn't change a person for the good, it doesn't make someone better and if anything, while he directly murders this innocent family, it is the prison system and the punishment we lay on mental ill people that causes these chain of events to set in motion.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A claustrophobic descent into the mind of a disturbed man as he enacts horrific violence with cold precision. This is an unflinching character study of depravity that prioritizes psychological terror over jump scares.
