Upstairs

About This Movie

Upstairs (2011) is a quirky blend of comedy and horror that explores the strange dynamics of modern relationships through the lens of a freshly single guy, Jonas. The film has this unique, almost claustrophobic atmosphere, amplified by the incessant noise from the upstairs neighbor, Frank, whose antics drive much of the tension and dark humor. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter, but in a way that suits the theme of disconnection among characters. The performances are a mixed bag, but they capture this surreal, unsettling vibe of urban loneliness. It's not your typical horror-comedy; it’s more about the absurdity of everyday life and the chaos that lurks just above us, literally and metaphorically. Definitely a film that stands out for its originality and offbeat charm.
