So, 'Mirror, Mirror: Matryoshka' is this eerie little gem that’s kind of hard to pin down, really. It opens on Amy, whose days blend into this surreal cycle of cosplay and character creation. The atmosphere? Unnervingly claustrophobic with a sense of dread lurking just beneath the surface. The pacing is methodical, almost hypnotic at times, which makes the unsettling moments hit harder. The practical effects here are worth noting – they lean heavily into the creepy without relying on over-the-top CGI. As for performances, Amy feels relatable in her oddity, drawing you into her increasingly twisted reality. It’s distinctive for its exploration of identity, and how the layers of self can unravel when confronted with the uncanny. Definitely a unique take on the horror genre.
