Nocebo (2022)

A children's fashion designer suffers from a mysterious illness until the new nanny manages to improve her state with traditional Asian remedies.

'Nocebo' is a horror film with many psychological elements. It manages to visually paint the panic and suffering of the main character, but the mitigating circumstances that include the disturbing predictability, the lack of natural/believable reactions of all the characters after any dubious interaction, all cause the viewer to not be impressed by the suffering presented (no matter how obvious).

Director:  Lorcan Finnegan   
With: Eva Green, Mark Strong, Chai Fonacier, Billie Gadsdon

Rating: 4/10
