How It Feels

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

A 1920s occult thriller where good and evil wage war over a human soul, with mounting supernatural horrors besieging the righteous trapped behind protective symbols. It's operatic horror that takes its mythology seriously, building dread through ritualistic menace rather than gore.
