How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A screwball romp that treats a haunted house as an excuse for slapstick chaos rather than genuine scares, with two lovable goofballs stumbling through increasingly ridiculous situations. It's the kind of film where the comedy and the "horror" elements exist in entirely different registers, creating a gleefully absurd energy.
