From the Heart

About This Movie

So, 'From the Heart' is a curious little science fiction piece from 2020 that dives into some pretty unusual territory. It presents Toxoplasma Gondii—yes, the parasite—living inside a human and it’s a wild concept, right? The film leans heavily on its atmosphere, creating a blend of eerie and oddly intimate moments that really pull you in. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, which can be jarring at times but kind of works for what it’s going for. The practical effects are intriguing, making the grotesque feel oddly relatable. Performances are solid; they carry the weight of the bizarre premise well. It’s not your typical sci-fi romp, but there's something about its unique perspective that sticks with you.
