How It Feels

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

A slow descent into reality-warping dread as an insurance investigator pursues a missing horror author into a town that may not exist, or may exist only in the fiction written about it. Carpenter's Lovecraftian nightmare blurs the line between the real and the written until nothing feels safe.
