High Score

About This Movie

High Score digs into the dark corners of online radicalization, blending drama and horror in a pretty unsettling way. The protagonist, as he spirals deeper into these extremist ideologies, feels so real – almost too real, you know? The pacing is deliberate, which gives you time to feel the weight of his choices, but also has these moments that hit hard and fast, jarring you from your complacency. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and there’s this underlying sense of dread that builds throughout. Practical effects are minimal but effective, accentuating the psychological horror rather than relying on flashy gore. The performances, especially from the lead, are raw and haunting, adding to the film's overall impact. It’s not for everyone, but it definitely leaves a mark.
