Arteries

About This Movie

So, 'Arteries' is one of those films that really pulls you in with its eerie atmosphere. The pacing is methodical, almost hypnotic, which gives it this unsettling vibe throughout. It’s kind of hard to pin down the genre since it dances between horror and psychological thriller, but that's part of its charm. The practical effects—though not overly flashy—are really effective, creating a visceral feel that lingers long after watching. The performances are raw and intense, capturing a sense of desperation and confusion that really resonates. There’s something unique about the themes explored, diving deep into human vulnerability in a way that stays with you.

'Arteries' remains somewhat obscure, which adds to its collector allure. There haven’t been many releases, often just bootlegs or festival prints circulating among enthusiasts. The scarcity of legitimate copies means that those who do have it tend to guard it closely. Interest is growing, though, as collectors are starting to appreciate its distinct tone and atmosphere, along with the solid practical effects that set it apart from many contemporaries.
