How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deliberately trashy, audacious double feature that gleefully ransacks grindhouse cinema conventions with graphic action, dark humor, and the kind of campy excess that knows exactly how ridiculous it is. It's a ride that swings between apocalyptic horror and vehicular terror with knowing winks at its own excess.
