How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A disturbing descent into sociopathy wrapped in a creature-feature revenge tale. Willard's pathetic isolation and manipulation of his rat army creates an atmosphere of creeping unease that's deeply uncomfortable to watch unfold.
