About This Movie

Carrion dives into a world wrapped in desolation and quiet dread. Set in a motel near a desiccated lake, it paints a haunting portrait of a child's fragile innocence against the backdrop of decay. Mengmeng’s discovery of the rotting carcass serves as a catalyst for the surreal and eerie happenings that follow, including the arrival of a mysterious figure. The film's atmosphere is thick with tension, layered with themes of loss and the interplay between life and death. Performances are subtle yet impactful, particularly from the young Mengmeng, who navigates her reality with an unsettling curiosity. The practical effects, rather minimal but effective, enhance the film's overall mood, leaving a lingering sense of unease that resonates long after the credits roll.
