How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly comic puzzle box where the line between sanity and madness blurs with each twist. The film plays like a sick joke that keeps one-upping itself, wrapping horror vignettes in a meta-game about who's really crazy.
