Una locura artística del tipo de Cabeza borradora, más arraigada en la realidad. Ambiente sombrío y escenas oníricas, a veces dispersas cronológicamente. El trauma del protagonista y el monstruo al que está psicológicamente conectado, y que es una personificación metafórica de sus pesadillas. Un cine bizarro para los invitados, con una actuación genial de Sean Harris y la voz de Alun Armstrong. Sin embargo, no se puede decir que encaje significativamente o genere emociones.

Possum is a horror-tinged psychological drama featuring two characters and one terrifying puppet you won’t easily forget. In many ways, it’s reminiscent of David Cronenberg’s Spider — though while Spider leans more heavily on pure psychology, Possum is far more unsettling, ready to rattle your nerves if you let it. The story is quite surreal, but if you pay close attention, you’ll unravel it without too much trouble. The ending ties everything together neatly, leaving no major questions unanswered — just don’t expect the film to spoon-feed you those answers.
