In the early 20th century a village experienced a series of inexplicable murders. All the victims were young men who had been turned to stone. The perpetrator of these deaths was a being so repulsive that she transformed the onlooker using the power of her deadly stare. Much of the time the creature took the form of a beautiful and seductive woman, but during periods of the full moon she becomes a living horror, vicious and deadly. A professor has come to investigate the deaths, bringing with him his beautiful assistant whose knowledge of the Gorgon is more intimate than anyone would ever realise.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A slow-burning Gothic horror that strangles the village atmosphere with supernatural dread and a secret that becomes increasingly difficult to conceal. The film trades overt scares for creeping psychological tension and the knowledge of something monstrous lurking just beneath beautiful surfaces.
