Headache takes you into a bizarre, dystopian world where the monotony of life is punctuated by the absurdity of painkiller production. The film's tone is bleak yet strangely humorous, creating an atmosphere where existential dread mingles with dark comedy. Pacing feels deliberate, drawing you into Frank's unsettling transition as he navigates the absurdity of his new department. The practical effects are particularly interesting, contributing to that off-kilter vibe. Performances are solid, with subtle nuances that reflect the characters' inner struggles.
