How It Feels

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

A gothic possession tale where a murdered witch claws her way back through her daughter's body to exact vengeance. It's steeped in the grim aesthetics of witchcraft trials and supernatural horror, though the line between victim and instrument blurs throughout.
