Nails

About This Movie

So, 'Nails' is this unsettling little film that starts with a mundane moment—a woman chipping her fingernail while washing dishes, but then it spirals into something much darker. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and you can really feel the weight of her descent into a psychological maze. It plays with themes of obsession and the fragility of sanity, and there’s a nice mix of practical effects that make the horror feel more visceral. The pacing is deliberate, drawing you into her spiraling thoughts. It’s not just another horror flick; it’s a study of how something as trivial as a broken nail can lead someone down a harrowing path. Definitely a unique watch if you’re into unsettling narratives.

This film has seen a bit of a niche following since its release, although physical formats can be a challenge to track down. A handful of indie distributors have put out copies, but they’re not exactly abundant. Collector interest seems to revolve around its psychological depth rather than typical horror elements, making it a potentially intriguing find for those who appreciate films that probe into the human psyche.
