The Cycle

About This Movie

So, The Cycle, directed by Víctor García, really dives into that unsettling blend of drama and horror. It opens with this intense scene—a naked, blood-soaked guy tossing a corpse into a basement. The atmosphere is thick, suffocating almost, and it sets the tone right away. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, as it explores the darker sides of human nature. Practical effects add a raw edge, grounding the horror in reality, which makes it all the more impactful. The performances are hauntingly convincing, pulling you into this twisted narrative. It’s not your typical horror fare, and that's what gives it a unique flair. Quite a piece if you're into films that linger in your mind.
