How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleeful subversion of slasher tropes that weaponizes horror movie knowledge and Black culture as survival tools. It's genuinely funny and genuinely tense, never letting you forget it's winking at the genre even as the body count climbs.
