Roadkill

About This Movie

So, Roadkill is an interesting piece—has this gritty, almost claustrophobic vibe that really sinks in. The story follows Den, this middle-aged convict from London, who’s stuck in this cycle of reflection. He dives deep into his past, and you get the sense that these memories are haunting him, painting a heavy and somber picture of regret. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, letting each moment breathe. The performances don’t try to overdo it, but they land hard, particularly in those emotionally charged scenes. It’s not flashy, but there’s a rawness to it that speaks volumes. The practical effects are sparse, which actually works in its favor, letting the character’s journey take center stage. A solid watch for those who appreciate character-driven narratives.
