How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A transgressive exploitation film that plunges into the psychology of a sexual predator with clinical detachment, refusing to look away from depravity. This is deliberately provocative cinema designed to unsettle and disturb.
