Erasmus

About This Movie

Erasmus is an interesting blend of genres, starting off with this almost documentary-like feel as we follow Montse through the vibrant Barcelona nightlife. The initial carefree vibe gives way to a palpable tension, and the pacing shifts dramatically once the killings start. It’s raw and gritty, particularly the practical effects that don’t shy away from the brutality of the murders. The atmospheric tension builds in a way that plays on your expectations. Performances are solid, especially Montse, who captures that sense of growing dread quite well. The film stands out for its unique premise of blending a party documentary with slasher elements, creating a twisted commentary on nightlife culture that lingers long after the credits roll.
