How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleefully blasphemous romp through Madrid where a priest, a metalhead, and an occult TV host team up to stop the Antichrist, mixing frantic action with surreal logic and a rock-and-roll sense of transgression. It's chaotic, profane, and unapologetically weird, a Christmas apocalypse comedy that treats the sacred and profane as interchangeable punchlines.
