Symptom

About This Movie

Symptom (2015) dives into a haunting atmosphere, set against the bleak backdrop of a winter on an isolated island. The film introduces a mysterious creature clad in a leather jacket, his twinkling eyes lurking in the dark, slowly driving the island's residents to madness. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build gradually. What stands out is the unsettling performance of the strange girl who seems to hold the key to confronting this entity. It plays with themes of isolation, fear, and the struggle for sanity. The practical effects, though minimal, evoke a sense of dread that complements the eerie tone. Not your typical drama—more of a psychological exploration wrapped in a chilling narrative.
