Cookers

About This Movie

Cookers is a gritty blend of drama and horror, steeped in a suffocating atmosphere that’s hard to shake off. The pacing is relentless, matching the frantic energy of its protagonists, Hector and Dorena, as they spiral deeper into their drug-fueled plans. The abandoned farmhouse setting adds a layer of isolation and dread, almost becoming a character in itself. What really stands out are the practical effects – there's a rawness to the way the drug-making process is depicted that feels authentic and unsettling. Performances are gritty; you can really feel the desperation and paranoia seep through. It’s distinctive for its unflinching look at addiction, intertwining a slow burn with moments of real horror. Not for the faint-hearted, but it leaves an impression.
