The MistryMan Take

The body horror and some scenes were scary  Horror mixed with Gotham was elite, what a vibe  Felt myself touching my face saying thank god I still have it. Not as much clay as I was expecting  Shapeshifting was 🔥

About the film

Matt Hagen's meteoric rise from Gotham street kid to Hollywood leading man is tragically cut short when a local crime boss's actions leave him horribly disfigured. Abandoned by his team and with nothing left, Matt seeks out a cutting edge treatment that miraculously returns him to his former self… but also unexpectedly affects his grip on reality, spiraling him down a destructive path of all-consuming revenge.
