Donor

About This Movie

Donor is a gritty indie horror that dives into the dark underbelly of desperation and morality. You’ve got this sick dude, really unhinged, who heads to New York City for a sketchy surgical treatment – you can feel the tension building as he documents his journey on social media. It’s interesting how the film captures that modern voyeurism, you know? The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the practical effects have this raw, unsettling quality that enhances the overall bleakness. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it mirrors the protagonist’s deteriorating mental state, which is kind of brilliant, in an off-kilter way. There's an unsettling reflection on how society views donors and the commodification of life – definitely not your average horror flick.
