Mygale
Blessing in Disguise - It’s best not to rely on appearances. Still waters sometimes mask the most devastating of volcanoes, as the shady world of Mygale reminds us as it slowly but surely keeps us on edge. Although the four misfits of this underworld try hard to become close, they are addicted to violence. Their attempts to gently reach out to the other are in vain. Even the silence crackles with the mental stress they radiate as their hardened, tormented hearts spin madly in a rut. Their laughter is nervous, their actions unpredictable. “Blood will come raining down,” notes one of them. From one scene to the next, the suspense is compelling.
