Masking Threshold

First things first, this isn't really horror per se, but I suppose going insane would be considered horror. This film focuses on senses in every way possible, sight, sound, taste, smell, and touch. It's those senses that intensifies over time and for some, becomes a crutch into self isolation as it turns into psychological paranoia.

The film introduces you into each of these senses with spiraling inner thoughts spoken out as the film goes on, and then leads to full blown insanity that ends in surrender. If you focus on the underlying context without feeling bored, you'll understand why this film plays out this way.

Complete insanity in doses.

Watched this horror masterpiece at Saskatoon FF.

Brilliant script, brilliant camera, brilliant sound... at a budget of 20k (!!!). Incredible. I recommend to check it out. Hope it will get distribution soon.

As soon as he put the shelves up on the wall during the first 20 seconds of the movie, I knew what I was in for. Close ups, close-ups and more close-ups... one of those "narrative genre film".

Stay away at all cost... unless you like artsi fartsi pretending to be deep Freudianmadness all narrated by an annoying voice for the entire run time. Like someone said earlier - "this may be the most unnerving film that I watched, but it may also be the one that sticks in my head for the longest".-- BUT NOT IN A GOOD WAY.

With zero doubt I can honestly say that this was the most boring film that I have seen this year.

I would rather watch paint dry or grass grow.

This is a masterful piece of movie making, reminiscent of Poe's The Telltale Heart. A horror ASMR film with a faceless protagonist describing his efforts to prove his sanity. In fact, what we see as an audience is a detailed decent into madness. The brutality and delusions continue to escalate as the movie moves along. I entered in to this experience with no idea of what i was in for. This was a nice surprise. However, this film is nor for everyone. I'm trying to just describe the feeling of this film without ruining it for that 1in 5 person that will love it. The plot description says all you need to know going in.

I do not know where to start. This is one of the most unique movie experiences I've ever had. A truly astrounding depiction of the descent into madness. Fascinating.

A paranoid tech guy frustrated by his constant tinnitus opens up about his obsessive attempts to cure his debilitating tinnitus through a series of home experiments in a makeshift lab. But as his investigations grow darker and more frightening, a terrible secret behind his desperate condition is revealed - and the possible cure is even darker than he could have ever imagined.

It's an intriguingly intimate experiment in minimalist horror that shows how far a filmmaker can go with a simple premise: to show a man's mental breakdown documented through an online video diary.
