How It Feels

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

A gleefully grotesque splatter-comedy where a young man's attempts to manage his zombified mother spiral into gloriously excessive bloodshed. It's horror played as slapstick farce, with inventive gore as the punchline.
