Eli
A boy named Eli with a rare autoimmune disorder is confined to a special experimental clinic for his treatment. He soon begins experiencing supernatural forces, turning the supposedly safe facility into a haunted prison for him and his fellow patients.
Why it matters
A claustrophobic supernatural thriller that blends medical paranoia with haunted house chills, challenging the boundary between illness and otherworldly possession.
- Director Ciarán Foy (Citadel) returns with sleek practical effects, especially the unsettling skin transformations that ground Eli’s mysterious condition in visceral reality.
- The clinical setting doubles as a modern gothic prison, perfect for fans of psychological hauntings and body horror crossroads.
- Tense family dynamics and a slow-burn atmosphere anchor the spectral scares, though some narrative choices stumble under the weight of their own mysteries.
- Ideal for viewers who appreciate a strong mood and twisty reveals over polished plot mechanics—expect eerie discomfort more than airtight storytelling.
