Following a car accident that kills his wife and leaves his best friend David (David Pareja) with nothing but a scratch, Javi (Javier Botet, REC, Crimson Peak) is left bedridden. His body bears deep gashes, his lungs are filled with fluid that make talking painful and near impossible, his legs are inoperable. From scene one, we see the dynamic at play between the two survivors. David carries Javi into the house. They are fresh from the hospital, and David assures Javi that he will be there to care for him. But... something is not right. Javi does not want David's help. David starts noticing things out of place. He starts suspecting Javi of gaslighting him, despite the fact that Javi can barely move of his own volition. In a series of torturous scenes, the power dynamic settles into a disquieting groove. Reaching an aching fever pitch....

Goza de un ritmo correctísimo para lo que sucede en todo momento. La fotografía capta correctamente el ambiente de cada escena y los silencios naturales me encantan.

Variety

It’s taken its time getting a North American release, but will prove worth the wait for fans of restrained, small-scale yet harrowing suspense.

Nightmare on Film Street

Rated: 6/10
