The Girl in the Gramophone

About This Movie

The Girl in the Gramophone really nails that unsettling vibe throughout. Set in this dingy St Kilda apartment, it creates an oppressive atmosphere that just seeps into your bones. Andrew, our lead, is just looking for a fresh start, but boy, does he get more than he bargained for. The pacing is deliberate, building tension slowly, which I found pretty effective. Practical effects are used wisely here, adding to the overall eeriness without overwhelming the narrative. Performances are solid; Andrew feels relatable, and as the supernatural elements unfold, you can almost feel his descent into madness. It’s not a run-of-the-mill horror flick—there's a distinct psychological angle that lingers long after the credits roll.
