Freelance

About This Movie

Freelance is a deep dive into the psyche of a struggling video editor who crosses a line into darkness. The tone is heavy, almost claustrophobic, as she grapples with her moral decay while editing these eerie snuff films. The pacing feels deliberate, building tension slowly, almost suffocatingly, and it pulls you into her unraveling sanity. There are some standout practical effects that really hit hard, especially in the visions that haunt her—makes you wonder how they achieved that eeriness without overly relying on CGI. The performances, particularly from the lead, are raw and unsettling, capturing the dread of her isolation and guilt. It’s that blend of psychological horror and visceral imagery that sets it apart from typical fare.
