Comfort

About This Movie

Comfort (2017) dives into a chilling exploration of mental health, where the protagonist, a man with a history of schizophrenia, confronts a traumatic event that reignites his psychosis. The film's atmosphere is heavy and tense, slowly pulling you into the character's unsettling world. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for moments of disquiet that linger long after the credits roll. While the performances are raw and gritty, it’s the practical effects that stand out, enhancing the feeling of spiraling into madness. It’s not conventional; it feels almost like a descent into a nightmare, with its distinctive approach to storytelling and character study. Definitely one for those interested in the more obscure, psychological facets of cinema.
