How It Feels

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

A playful haunted-house romp where heirs gathering for their inheritance become caught between paranoid suspicion of each other and the genuine threat of a maniac on the loose. The film balances comedy and creepy moments with tongue-in-cheek style.
