Reptile Shop

About This Movie

Reptile Shop is an interesting piece, you know? It dives into the eerie world of a pet store focused on reptiles, which immediately sets a unique tone. Aluisio's attachment to the creatures contrasts sharply with Cristina's eagerness to sell the shop, creating this palpable tension. The atmosphere is thick, almost claustrophobic at times, which works well with its horror elements. Pacing is on the slower side but feels intentional, letting those unsettling moments linger. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, add a layer of realism that enhances the creepiness, and the performances, particularly Aluisio's, give it a genuine feel. It’s a small gem that stands out for its premise and execution.
