Affirmation

About This Movie

Affirmation dives into a surreal world where the wellness craze spirals into something sinister. The film's tone is unsettling, blending bright visuals of yoga retreats with shadows lurking just beneath the surface. It sets a slow burn pace, gradually unraveling the eerie consequences of toxic positivity. Practical effects stand out, often used to depict the body horror elements that arise when mantras take a dark turn. Performances are solid, though the unknown director adds a layer of intrigue; the film feels fresh and unrefined in a way that keeps you guessing. It's a particular exploration of self-help turned toxic, really making one question the lengths we go for self-affirmation. Quite distinctive in its approach, it feels like a breath of fresh air in the horror genre.
