NearSighted

About This Movie

NearSighted is this intriguing little film that plays with perspective – both literally and figuratively. The main character, after removing his contacts, starts to see things that blur the line between reality and imagination. The pacing is methodical, almost hypnotic, drawing you into this surreal atmosphere where the mundane becomes unsettling. The practical effects are quite striking for what I assume is a low budget; they really enhance the visual storytelling in a way that feels raw and authentic. You can feel the tension build as he grapples with what he sees. It’s not flashy, but it leaves you thinking about perception long after it ends.

NearSighted has had a pretty limited release, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. As far as I know, it hasn't been widely available on home media, which adds to its underground appeal. Enthusiasts often mention it in niche circles, and there’s a growing interest in its unusual themes and practical effects, making it a unique piece for anyone looking to dive into lesser-known films that challenge typical narrative structures.
