How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deliciously campy revenge fantasy where a scorned Shakespearean actor orchestrates elaborate theatrical murders of his critics, blending Grand Guignol horror with winking humor. It's a love letter to theatrical excess where the violence is as performative as it is bloody.
