Heavy Water

About This Movie

Heavy Water is an intriguing dive into the interplay of folk horror and the occult, woven through Adam Scovell's unique lens. The film's pace feels almost meditative, drawing you into its super-8 landscapes where sound and texture merge seamlessly. You're not really watching a straightforward narrative; it's an exploration of themes like memory and the unseen layers of history. The practical effects have a tactile quality that complements the film's eerie atmosphere, and the occasional haunting score evokes a sense of unease. Scovell's ability to blend these elements creates a distinct experience that lingers long after the film ends, making you reconsider the stories we tell and the spaces we inhabit.
