Frost is this curious entry in the crime horror genre. It opens with a pretty grim scene, the police commissioner's wife, Anita, found dead and in a state beyond recognition. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, as Lieutenant Braque dives into a manhunt that feels relentless. The pacing has its lulls, but there's a creeping dread that builds as mysteries unfold. It's got a rawness to the practical effects that some modern films seem to lack, which makes the horror hit harder. Performances are gritty, almost unrefined, adding to the film's stark realism. What really sticks with you is the moral ambiguity; it leaves you questioning the lengths people will go when pushed to their limits.
