What Goes Around

About This Movie

What Goes Around is an intriguing blend of psychological tension and horror that keeps you guessing. The film leans heavily into that claustrophobic college atmosphere, creating a palpable sense of dread. The pacing is quite deliberate, which actually enhances the tension as we follow the timid lead, slowly unraveling her crush's dark side. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, are well-executed and add to the unsettling vibe. Performances here are a bit of a mixed bag, but the lead does a commendable job of portraying that growing unease. It’s distinctive for how it plays with the idea of trust and the façade of normalcy, leading to a chilling revelation that sticks with you.
