Like The Rest

About This Movie

Like The Rest, the 2026 debut from Marcus Ortiz, digs into a grim atmosphere that’s hauntingly immersive. The film manages to blend horror and thriller elements in a way that feels fresh yet familiar. There's a slow burn quality to the pacing, allowing tension to build gradually, which really pays off in the final act. Practical effects are utilized effectively, giving a grounded realism to the scares. Performances feel raw, especially from the lead, who conveys a palpable sense of dread that lingers long after the credits roll. Thematically, it explores isolation and the darkness that can blossom in the human psyche, making it more than just a standard horror flick.
