Nikuianata is one of those curious finds in the horror genre that feels almost like a hidden secret. The plot unfolds in this university setting, where a string of murders has students engaging in darkly humorous banter about their own safety. It's interesting how the film plays with this juxtaposition of light-heartedness against a backdrop of terror. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it helps build this strange tension. Practically speaking, the effects are decent for the time, grounding the horror in something tangible. The performances are varied; some of the students bring a certain charm that clashes interestingly with the horror unfolding. It’s not your typical horror flick, that’s for sure.
