Скачать или смотреть Why Liminal Space Cinema Is So Terrifying

Have you ever looked at an empty hallway, a foggy parking lot, or a dimly lit childhood bedroom and thought: this feels wrong? That’s a liminal space, a place that exists between the familiar and the unknown. And cinema? It’s full of them.

In this video, I delve into the eerie, emotional, and dreamlike realm of liminal spaces in film. From the haunting stillness of Stalker and Mirror to the disorienting horror of Skinamarink, the surreal suburbs of Vivarium, and the subconscious nightmare of David Lynch’s Eraserhead and Lost Highway.

Stalker (1979)
Mirror (1975)
Skinamarink (2022)
