Pollastre

About This Movie

Pollastre is a curious entry in the horror genre, with a raw, gritty feel that really pulls you into its unsettling atmosphere. The film opens with a man bound in a dilapidated room, and the pacing builds tension as we await the reveal of his captor. The sound design is particularly effective; those sharp heels echo ominously, adding to the dread. Practical effects are used sparingly, but they hit hard when they do appear. The performances are intriguing, especially the way the characters communicate tension without much dialogue. It's not polished, but it has a certain rough charm that makes it stand out. There’s a palpable sense of danger that lingers throughout, reflecting on themes of power and vulnerability.
