The Antenna

About This Movie

The Antenna is a fascinating dive into a dystopian reality that feels eerily relatable. Set in Turkey, it crafts a palpable atmosphere of dread as the government installs these ominous antennas. The pacing has a slow burn quality, building tension as Mehmet, the superintendent, becomes increasingly ensnared in the dark broadcast’s grip on the apartment residents. It's visually striking, utilizing practical effects to enhance the horror elements without relying too much on CGI. Performances are solid, pitching a sense of unease that festers throughout. The film digs into themes of surveillance and control, making it distinctive in its commentary. It’s not your typical horror fare, more of an unsettling exploration of society's decline.
