How It Feels

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

A supernatural slasher where a killer mannequin becomes an unstoppable curse passed from viewer to viewer. The film mines dread from a deceptively simple premise: look at it and you're marked for death.

Reviews

brett

<I>Don’t Look Away</i> is filled with elements of <I>SMILE</i>, <I>Final Destination</i> and <I>It Follows</i>, but fails to fully deliver due to its lazy attempt to scare its viewers with a non-moving, but creepy mannequin and a few off-screen kills.

<b>Final thoughts:</b>
Look away.
