Parallax

About This Movie

Parallax (2009) presents an intriguing atmosphere that pulls you into its world without much context. The pacing feels deliberately disorienting, aligning with its themes of perception and reality. While the director remains unknown, the film manages to evoke a certain tension through practical effects that stand out in a sea of CGI-heavy productions. Performances vary, but there's an earnestness that grounds the more surreal elements. It’s this unique balance of confusion and clarity that makes Parallax noteworthy—definitely not your average genre fare. You can sense the ambition behind it, even if it doesn’t always hit the mark.

Parallax is a bit of a hidden gem in the experimental film niche, and copies aren’t as easy to come by, which adds to its allure among collectors. The film has seen a few formats, but none are widely distributed, making it a curious addition for those who appreciate the less conventional side of cinema. Interest seems to linger mainly within niche circles, as its unique artistic approach can polarize opinions, but that’s what makes it special in the eyes of a discerning collector.
