How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A claustrophobic psychological thriller where safety becomes a trap when an unstable intruder watches from within the family's own walls. The dread builds from the premise itself, the doors are locked but the threat is already inside.
