The Shrouds

2025 David Cronenberg 120 MIN

Inconsolable since the death of his wife, prominent businessman Karsh Relikh invents a revolutionary and controversial technology that enables the living to monitor their dear departed in their shrouds. One night, multiple graves, including that of Karsh’s wife, are desecrated, and he sets out to track down the perpetrators.

HORROR CENTRALITY
35 /100

The premise centers on grief and a provocative technology, with unsettling elements such as grave desecration and monitoring the departed. However, the description does not indicate that fear, dread, or horror mechanisms are the primary engine of the film. It reads more as a thriller/mystery with horror-adjacent motifs rather than a film fundamentally designed to frighten audiences.
