How It Feels

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

A grimy descent into Louisiana swampland where a deranged killer and his crocodile create an atmosphere of constant, claustrophobic menace. This is exploitation filmmaking at its most primal, unpolished, grotesque, and designed to provoke maximum discomfort.
