“Fever Dream: a tale of a sickness upon the land, poisoned water, affecting horses and humans. Also a story about friendship and maternal love, and hate. A folk healer can u0026quot;cureu0026quot; the afflicted but at a cost. It involves the transmigration of spirits, half of the affected personu0026#39;s spirit departs and lodges within a healthy body but it is replaced by another anima. This causes the u0026quot;curedu0026quot; (especially children) to act like changelings. One mother describes her son as having been transformed into a monster. The horror here is predominately psychological but is no less effective than the gore/shock variety. The film does require close attention and perhaps even a second viewing but all the answers yiu seek to solve the mystery are within it. Not everything is as it seems at first glance and some characters show unexpected depths. An Eco-Folk Horror tale which you wonu0026#39;t forget in a hurry. Directed by Claudia Llosa, adapted by Llosa and Samanta Schweblin from Schweblinu0026#39;s novel. On Netflix. 8/10.”
