Bad Fever

The pacing limps along, lockstep with the wounded protagonist. As the story unfolds, the direction and cinematography capture the slippery slope of social alienation . However, the most impressive aspect of this film is the sound track. I'm glad I listened on headphones because there's no music in this film. It's all ambient and foley, mixed expertly. The soundtrack replenishes the oxygen that gets sucked out of the room throughout so much of the movie. It's sad and engaging at the same time.
