How It Feels

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

A pulpy occult thriller that treats Lovecraftian horror as action-adventure fodder, pacing plot mechanics over atmosphere. It's brisk and earnestly committed to its demonic premise, though more invested in spectacle than dread.
