How It Feels

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

A stark, unflinching examination of the Montreal Massacre that privileges the experiences of its victims over any humanization of the perpetrator. The film is austere and reflective, moving with deliberate purpose through a day of unthinkable violence.

nicolascagegoons

its a pretty bleak film but i don't think it was more then that.
but i do think with rewatches, i will apreciate it more.
i do like the only reason why this guy is shooting people(specifically woman) is because he's probably a bit to insecure lmfao.
