About This Movie

Horas Extras strikes a unique chord in the horror genre, delving into the unnerving world of social media moderation. The film creates a palpable atmosphere of dread, as Susana's mundane job evolves into a nightmare. The pacing is deliberate, building tension through her digital interactions, which are disturbingly realistic. Themes of isolation and the fragility of mental health are central here. The practical effects are understated but impactful, enhancing the psychological horror without overwhelming it. Performances are gritty; the lead captures Susana's descent into paranoia beautifully. It's a thought-provoking ride that reflects on our digital lives, a narrative that eerily resonates in today’s world, making it stand out against more traditional horror fare.
