Twelve

About This Movie

Twelve presents a trippy blend of horror and mystery wrapped in a sci-fi bow. The atmosphere is thick with confusion and dread as we follow Zach, the club kid with no memory. The pacing can feel erratic at times, but that mirrors his mental state. Practical effects add a gritty edge; there’s something raw about the visuals that really pulls you in. The film explores identity and existence, leading to some heady themes. Performances are kind of hit or miss, but Zach’s bewilderment feels genuine and haunting. It’s definitely one of those films that lingers long after the credits roll, leaving you with more questions than answers, which makes it distinctive in its own right.
