How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A paranoid domestic thriller that slowly tightens the screws as a teenage boy watches the charming man courting his mother reveal his sinister nature. It trades gore for psychological dread and the creeping certainty that danger has moved into your home.
