Almost Blue

About This Movie

Almost Blue has this gritty vibe that really captures the eerie isolation of a college town. Infascelli does a solid job building tension, relying on neither jump scares nor over-the-top theatrics. The performances are pretty understated, which adds a layer of creepiness, especially as the detective unravels the online world where victims are drawn in by this seemingly innocuous presence. The practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the unsettling atmosphere without feeling gratuitous. It’s got a slow burn kind of pacing that might not be for everyone, but it sinks its hooks in deep if you let it. A distinctive entry in the crime thriller genre that plays with themes of identity and voyeurism.

Directed by Alex Infascelli.Filmed on location in Italy.Notable for its use of online video chat.Features a minimalist score that enhances tension.
