How It Feels

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

A deeply uneasy Australian thriller that traps you in a cult's blood-drenched compound, playing with body horror and psychological violation as a woman confronts her dark lineage. It's horror that's less interested in jump scares than in the slow-burn dread of indoctrination and forced belonging.
