Hypochondriac

This is a very good and sadly very relatable psychological horror film about generational trauma and the damage a parent can do to their child when mental illness goes unchecked. The fact that the main character is a gay man hit that much closer to home. Had this been…

queer body horror that’s both sparse and erotic; an impressive debut and one that embraces the more abstract fringes of the genre while not alienating those that just want to be scared — but there are some moments here that will be jarring for even the more jaded genre vets
