How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A skeptical professor's arrogance unleashes supernatural horrors when he dismisses his wife's protective magic, trapping him in a spiral of mounting dread and otherworldly attacks. It's a slow-burn tale of paranoia and consequences where rationality proves dangerously insufficient against forces beyond reason.

Do YOU believe?!
Great mystery that is super creepy at times and it’s so nice to see a filmmaker know how to use light and shadow effectively too!
Terrific cast. Really impressive all around.
