TESIS by jaiskizzy

while doing a thesis on audiovisual violence, a girl (who looks more like a woman) finds a snuff film that sends her and her eccentric friend into a suspense-filled investigation.

utterly brilliant. with zero knowledge of the existence of this movie, i nary had the slightest thought that this was a thriller. i was expecting something drama-ish like 8mm since they have resembling plots but just like that scene where a dude was getting candles and a hand suddenly shoots out from the darkness in a most unexpected timing, i was extremely surprised by the direction this film went. thanks for taking me there, amenabar!

the great shots, the rising tension, the effective frights, and a cool movie geek in the form of chema, i must give this superb film a sky-high recommendation (as if i were somebody, huh?) especially to my fellow horror fans out there. you'll not be disappointed. take my word. it scared the crap out of the maiden. gonna buy it on dvd.
