Gangrene

About This Movie

Gangrene (2022) unfolds in a small, isolated village, blending horror and thriller elements effectively. The film showcases two brothers, whose contrasting personalities add depth to the narrative. One brother's descent into paranoia about the spreading gangrenous disease creates a tense, claustrophobic atmosphere. The pacing is deliberate but never drags, building dread as the infection spreads. The practical effects are a standout, showcasing some grotesque transformations that stick with you. Performances are solid, with a certain rawness that makes you feel the brothers' plight. It’s distinctive for its exploration of fear and familial bonds under extreme circumstances, rather than falling into standard genre tropes.
