How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A haunting exploration of how unresolved childhood trauma resurfaces to haunt you, wrapped in a supernatural revenge tale where the past literally refuses to stay buried. It's Stephen King mining horror from psychological wounds rather than jump scares.
