XIII

About This Movie

So, 'XIII' is this intriguing little thriller from 2018 that dives deep into the psyche of its main character, Mark. The isolation he experiences really sets a dense, moody atmosphere; you can feel the weight of his obsession with the missing number on elevators. The pacing is a bit uneven, which might throw some people off, but it adds to that sense of disorientation we're meant to feel alongside him. Billy, his only friend, gets swept into this bizarre web of dreams and memories, and you can’t help but feel the tension building as things unravel. It's got some practical effects that stand out in a landscape of digital overuse, which is refreshing. Not your average thriller.
