Anabel

About This Movie

So, Anabel is this intriguing piece from Antonio Trashorras that dives into the creepy side of roommate dynamics. The atmosphere is thick with tension and that slow burn really gets under your skin. It’s got this unsettling vibe where you’re never quite sure what's lurking just out of sight. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the dread to build effectively, which I appreciate. Performances are solid, especially the older gentleman who brings an unexpected depth, making you question his character's intentions. Practical effects are used sparingly but impactfully, which is always a plus in horror. Overall, it’s less about jump scares and more about a pervasive sense of anxiety that sticks with you long after the credits roll.
