How It Feels

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

A horror-comedy romp through a mysteriously inhabited Welsh manor where a writer's get-rich-quick scheme collides with genuinely eerie surprises. It's the kind of film that relishes its own absurdity, spooky without ever being truly scary.
