Possessor
Tasya Vos, an elite corporate assassin, uses brain-implant technology to take control of other people’s bodies to terminate high profile targets. As she sinks deeper into her latest assignment, Vos becomes trapped inside a mind that threatens to obliterate her.
Why it matters
A visceral plunge into high-concept body horror where identity and violence collide in a digital nightmare.
- Brandon Cronenberg channels his father’s legacy with a fresh, merciless vision of tech-driven possession and psychological disintegration.
- Andrea Riseborough delivers an unnervingly clinical yet vulnerable performance, anchoring the film’s chilling exploration of agency and control.
- Practical gore effects and surreal visual design create a fever dream atmosphere that’s as unsettling as it is hypnotic.
- For fans of cerebral horror that punishes the body as much as the mind—this is a brutal, uncompromising descent into the monsters we harbor within.
