An Affair

About This Movie

So, 'An Affair' is this low-key horror flick from 2013 that creeps under your skin. The tone is pretty dark, almost oppressive at times, with an atmosphere that feels thick and suffocating. It leans heavily on practical effects, which adds a gritty realism that CGI just can’t replicate. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it kind of works in building tension—just when you think you’ve caught your breath, it pulls you back in. The performances are solid, especially in how they navigate themes of obsession and betrayal. There’s something distinctive about its approach to horror, not just relying on jump scares but rather creating a feeling of unease that lingers long after the credits roll.
