Confessional

About This Movie

So, Confessional (2019) dives into this eerie college setting where the atmosphere is thick with tension. You’ve got these seven students, all tangled up in this web of secrets after two deaths on the same night. The pacing is intriguing—slow, but it builds suspense effectively without feeling dragged out. The confessional booth itself is an interesting plot device, almost claustrophobic, amplifying the psychological thriller vibe. Practical effects are used sparingly but to good effect, keeping the focus on the characters and their unraveling psyches. Performances are solid, capturing that youthful mix of bravado and vulnerability. It’s distinctive for how it plays with themes of guilt and confession, giving it a unique edge in the thriller genre.
