How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A methodical sci-fi thriller that builds mounting dread as a excavation beneath London uncovers something ancient and malevolent, gradually revealing how profoundly it corrupts everyone nearby. The film takes its premise seriously, treating psychic horror as a genuine scientific mystery rather than spectacle.
