How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A creeping 1950s thriller where six GIs find themselves hunted by a shape-shifting cobra cult, with mounting paranoia and strangled deaths stalking them through post-war New York. It's pulpy creature-horror wrapped in mid-century noir atmosphere.
