How It Feels

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

A claustrophobic creature feature where an isolated community faces an escalating biological nightmare with no easy escape. The film builds creeping dread through tangible monster designs and the visceral horror of bodies being consumed from within.

The killer ravioli movie!
I’ve always enjoyed this movie. Watched as a child and the creatures lived in my head for decades but the title did not. It wasn’t until the internet became a thing that I was able to rediscover it.
