About This Movie

The Next Victim is a gritty exploration of urban horror set against the backdrop of São Paulo's dark alleys. The film follows a TV reporter who dives deep into the unsettling world of murdered prostitutes. There's a rawness to the atmosphere, accentuated by practical effects that add a layer of realism to the brutality portrayed. Pacing feels deliberate, allowing tension to build as the reporter uncovers the terrifying truth. The performances are quite compelling—there’s a sense of desperation and urgency that really resonates. What stands out is how it tackles societal issues while blending in those crime and horror elements, making it a rather distinctive entry in the genre. Not your typical slasher fare, it has a certain rough charm.
