Piercing
Directed by Nicolas Pesce
Reed is going on a business trip, but instead of a suitcase filled with clothes, he's packed a toothbrush and a murder kit. Everything is meticulously planned: check into a hotel and kill an unsuspecting victim. Only then will he rid himself of his devious impulses and continue to be a good husband and father. But Reed gets more than he bargained for with Jackie, an alluring call girl who arrives at his room. Who's playing whom? Before the night is over, a feverish nightmare will unfold, and Reed and Jackie will seal their bond in blood.
A husband and father plans to check into a hotel and kill an unsuspecting victim, who has to be a call girl. But a feverish nightmare will unfold.
Cast: Mia Wasikowska, Christopher Abbott, Laia Costa

good backgrouond watching. Really nicely filmed and fairly interesting
Skip this and read the original book by Ryu Murakami - it's a thousand times better than this. Such dull, listless characters, no atmosphere and the colour scheme was overly-dull to the point that it was drab. Over all - boring! Very disappointed considering how great the book is.
This is a brilliant Horror film it's innovative from the start a unique plot storyline that has not been used for along time. The screenplay and executive production is very creative and not easily pulled off in the 21st century. There's shocks, twists and turns that you don't see coming from the characters which makes it gripping to the end. D S Fox
really enjoyed this, beautifully shot and quirky with a delicious sondtrack and 70s feels. Rare that I watch a horror these days and think, that's genuinely good. I can't fault it.
Cool, quirky and stylish! Well shot, great characters, well acted with good little twists and turns. I really liked the sets and soundtrack too!
