Drained

About This Movie

So, 'Drained' is this fascinating blend of animation and live-action that really dives into the darker corners of addiction. The pacing can feel a bit jarring at times, but I think that works for it, creating this unsettling atmosphere that echoes the protagonist's turmoil. The visuals are striking; the animation juxtaposes so well with the rawness of live-action, adding a layer of surrealism that heightens the emotional stakes. The themes are heavy, exploring how selfishness can unravel connections, especially in relationships. It's a character-driven piece and the performances carry that weight, making you feel the tension. There's something about its approach to storytelling that sticks with you, it’s not easily forgotten.
