Devoured

Recording with cold, clinical precision the gradual descent into madness, this slow-burning psychological thriller marks a change of pace for director Greg Olliver, previously best known for his documentary portrait of grizzled Motorhead front man Lemmy.

An intense, troubling film, boasting a spectacular lead performance from Marta Milans, Devoured calls to mind such bleak and visceral late 70s NY urban dramas as Taxi Driver and Driller Killer in its expert depiction of alienation and escalating horror.
