How It Feels

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

A taut haunted-house chiller where claustrophobia and supernatural dread tighten around a family as a malevolent ghost uses the mother's son as a vessel. The horror stems from intimacy corrupted, the violation of family bonds and home as sanctuary.
