How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleefully anarchic send-up of horror that swings wildly between slapstick chaos and lovingly meticulous parody, treating its ridiculous premise with the utmost deadpan earnestness. It's comedy designed for laughing out loud, bolstered by impeccable physical timing and gleeful irreverence.
