Abrasions

About This Movie

Abrasions is one of those films that lingers in the shadows, exploring themes of desire and pain in a way that’s both haunting and intriguing. The atmosphere is thick with tension, almost palpable, punctuated by practical effects that really give it a unique edge. It doesn’t rush; instead, it takes its time, allowing the viewer to sit in the discomfort of its narrative. The performances feel raw, pushing boundaries without crossing into sensationalism. There's a weird charm in its ambiguity that keeps you pondering long after it fades to black, almost like a whisper of something forbidden.

Abrasions has had a bit of a rocky journey in terms of availability, with its format history being somewhat fragmented. It’s not an easy find – original prints are scarce, and even the home video releases seem to pop up infrequently. Collectors who appreciate the nuances of underground cinema have shown interest, particularly for its bold themes and distinctive style, making it a curious piece for those diving into the early 90s sado-erotic genre.
