THE is a horror film and, at the same time, a film about horror films—a meta shocker constructed from real and (digitally) generated visual worlds, which processes the visual and oral habits conditioned by the genre. To a precise-perfidious horrific sound, the picture soon twists in a material-aesthetic martyrdom. A haunting of the “horrendous” as an audio-visual experiment.
