Purgatory (2023) really digs into the messy dynamics of human relationships, focusing on this troubled guy who just can't seem to get it right with the women in his life. The pacing has a slow burn quality, building tension as his despair deepens, leading to some pretty dark places. The atmosphere feels heavy, almost suffocating at times, which adds to the overall intensity. Performances are raw and gritty, capturing that sense of inner turmoil convincingly. What stands out here is the practical effects used in a few key scenes – not overdone, but they hit hard. It’s a character study that leaves you feeling a little uneasy, and that’s the point. Not your typical thriller, but it certainly lingers.
