As in Heaven, So on Earth

About This Movie

As in Heaven, So on Earth is an intriguing blend of animation, fantasy, and horror, with a historical backdrop that sets a haunting tone. The film oscillates between the grim dungeons of an abbey in 1275 a.C. and the eerie woods of 2011 a.C., weaving narratives that feel both timeless and unsettling. The alchemist's experiments evoke a sense of dread, while the pacing keeps you engaged, revealing mysteries and dark secrets slowly. The practical effects used in both timelines add a gritty realism that contrasts with the animated style, amplifying the horror elements. The performances, especially from the young amanuensis and the imprisoned girl, bring an emotional depth that’s striking. It’s not just a story about escape; it’s about the haunting past and the consequences that echo through time.
