How It Feels

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

A gloriously unhinged creature feature that knows exactly what it is: a cheaper, weirder King Kong knockoff shot in Seoul with genuine chaos and B-movie charm. It's trashy fun wrapped in genuine monster mayhem.
