Karma

About This Movie

So, 'Karma' is one of those films that dives deep into the unsettling layers of human behavior, especially in a school setting—definitely not just your run-of-the-mill horror. The pacing feels deliberate, almost suffocating at times, which really ramps up the tension. Shen Ling, the teacher, kind of embodies that naive optimism before the darkness of her students creeps in, and wow, what character shifts. The practical effects aren’t overly flashy but serve the story well, adding that grimy realism. There’s something distinctively eerie about the atmosphere, like the campus itself is a character, hiding secrets in plain sight. It’s not flashy but has a lingering quality that sticks with you.
