How It Feels

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

A neon-soaked fever dream that blends samurai mythology with body-horror and trashy action, creating something beautifully unhinged and deliberately excessive. You're watching a man literally strapped with a ticking biological bomb navigate a wasteland populated by the violent and strange.
