Overview

What starts as a poignant medical documentary about Deborah Logan's descent into Alzheimer's disease and her daughter's struggles as caregiver degenerates into a maddening portrayal of dementia at its most frightening, as hair-raising events begin to plague the family and crew and an unspeakable malevolence threatens to tear the very fabric of sanity from them all.

How It Feels

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

A found-footage horror film that weaponizes the vulnerability of dementia, starting as intimate family tragedy before descending into visceral dread. It's genuinely nauseating, the terror comes from the breakdown of a person we're forced to watch closely, through a camera that never looks away.
