How It Feels

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

A deliberately maximalist descent into organ-repossession nightmare logic, where graphic body horror crashes headlong into campy theatrical excess and heavy-metal rock opera. It's transgressive and absurd in equal measure, a film that swings wildly between genuine horror and self-aware parody.
