Gnaw has this raw, unsettling vibe that creeps under your skin. It dives deep into the psychological horror of obsession, triggered by something as mundane as a hangnail. The pacing is deliberately slow, letting the tension build as Cote's life spirals into chaos, which feels almost claustrophobic. The practical effects are quite striking, capturing the grotesque reality of her fixation. Performances are layered, especially the dynamic between Cote and her girlfriend—it's fraught with tension and vulnerability. The film plays with themes of intimacy and self-destruction, making it not just a horror flick but a commentary on relationships. It’s got a unique voice in the genre, really worth pondering after the credits roll.
