How It Feels

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

A deliriously silly descent into a hellish TV dimension where married couple Roy and Helen must survive twisted parodies of beloved television programs to escape alive. It's exhausting, manic fun with practical effects and an anything-goes comedic sensibility.
