Tess (2025) dives deep into a gritty world of desperation and the supernatural. The film crafts an eerie atmosphere right from the opening scene, with dimly lit settings that accentuate the tension. The pacing is deliberate, allowing dread to simmer rather than rushing through scares. The performances, especially from the lead, are raw and layered, depicting the moral complexities of his character. What really stands out, though, are the practical effects; they evoke a sense of realism that CGI often fails to capture. Themes of greed and consequence are explored with a nuanced touch, making it more than just a horror flick. Overall, it’s an unsettling journey that lingers long after the credits roll.
