Gorge

About This Movie

Gorge presents a raw and intimate look at the struggles of a teen girl navigating life post-rehab. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially at that birthday party where emotional undercurrents are almost palpable. Dunaway's direction gives us a slow build, allowing the dread to settle in as family dynamics and personal demons clash. The performances are striking, with the lead embodying both vulnerability and defiance against her mother's overwhelming presence. Practical effects subtly highlight the horror of her internal battles, making the eating disorder feel like a character in itself. It’s distinctive in how it captures that moment of confronting not just the past but also the people who are supposed to love you. The pacing feels off-kilter, much like the protagonist's state of mind, keeping you on edge.
