How It Feels

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

A chilling slow-burn about the creeping horror of losing your loved ones to something that wears their faces. It's less about alien invasion than about the existential terror of a world where trust becomes impossible.
