Smog

About This Movie

So, 'Smog' is an interesting piece from 2023 that dives into the horror of isolation and the psychological weight that it brings. The story follows Bea, who's holed up in a bunker—built by her father, no less—believing she’s safe from the end of the world. But, you know, it’s not just the outside that's dangerous. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and there’s this creeping tension that builds nicely as the film progresses. The AI companion adds an eerie layer to her situation, almost like a digital ghost. The practical effects are done well, giving a gritty texture to the horror. It's a slow burn, but when things start to unravel, it really hooks you. Not your standard jump scare stuff, more psychological unease.
