How much shock can the human brain endure before it cracks?

Horror

They become close friends until Laura becomes convinced the spirit of Carmilla is forcing her to kill.

VIBE

A chillingly atmospheric descent into gothic dread. This film wraps you in a suffocating blanket of dread, where ancient curses and inherited madness bleed into the present. It’s a slow, creeping unease that lingers long after the credits roll.
