What I’m Watching: Desaparecer Por Completo (2022)

Synopsis: “After visiting a crime scene, a callous tabloid photographer falls prey to a mysterious affliction that makes him lose his five senses one by one.”

My take: Desaparecer Por Completo (Disappear Completely) is body horror at its finest. Both mysterious and disorienting, the Spanish-language film takes viewers on Santiago Mendoza's journey in a way that is immersive and unnerving. His choices show dynamic growth over the course of the several days within which his story takes place, but since this is horror, the desperate hope he has for himself might be a tad late.
