Possum

• Drama
• Horror
• Thriller

A deeply unsettling psychological horror film, *Possum* traps viewers within the fractured psyche of a former puppeteer returning to a desolate Norfolk childhood home. The film doesn't rely on jump scares, but cultivates an atmosphere of creeping dread and suffocating isolation, visualized through a grotesque, spider-like puppet that embodies the protagonist’s suppressed trauma and inescapable guilt. It’s a uniquely disturbing exploration of childhood abuse, not through explicit depiction, but through a claustrophobic, surreal landscape of memory and hallucination where the line between reality and delusion collapses. The stepfather isn’t merely a villain, but a chilling presence representative of inherited, generational damage. The narrative unfolds with a deliberate, agonizing slowness, forcing audiences to inhabit the protagonist's haunting internal world and experience the suffocating weight of unspoken horrors.
