How It Feels

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

A grotesque body-horror parable of vanity and desperation that transforms its aging female protagonist into a predatory monster. The film finds grim satisfaction in its cruel premise: a woman literally drains the life from men to reclaim her youth.
