How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lurid descent into New York's underground gay and BDSM subculture in pursuit of a serial killer, where the line between hunter and hunted, and between pretense and authenticity, grows dangerously blurred. Friedkin's film is deliberately ambiguous and morally murky, more interested in discomfort than answers.
