How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A methodical descent into occult obsession that trades jump scares for a creeping sense of malevolence and ambiguity. You emerge uncertain whether you've witnessed supernatural horror or psychological unraveling, which is precisely the point.
