Hard Awakenings (2022) has this gritty, raw vibe that makes you feel like you're peering into something you shouldn't. The pacing is a bit uneven—like it’s trying to catch its breath at times—which adds to the unsettling atmosphere. It touches on themes of isolation and the human condition but does so in a way that feels very grounded, almost like a documentary at points. The practical effects are notable; they don’t shy away from the visceral. Performances are solid, often feeling very authentic, which is refreshing. It’s not flashy, but it leaves a mark, you know?
Hard Awakenings has had a limited release, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. There are a few formats out there, but not all are widely circulated. Interest seems to be growing, especially among those who appreciate the more underground, indie scenes. Its scarcity might catch the eye of collectors looking for something a bit off the beaten path.
