Luz
Overview
Fleeing from the grasp of a possessed woman, a distressed cabdriver begins a confession in a rundown police station that endangers everyone who crosses her path. Shot entirely on 16mm and featuring a hypnotic synth-driven score, this first-time feature film from director Tilman Singer pays homage to the Euro Horror sensibilities of Andrzej Zulawski's Possession while subverting and reinventing the genre along with contemporaries like Panos Cosmatos (Mandy).

Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"An effective exercise in stylistic pastiche that has more to offer than its eerie retro mood, Tilman Singer's Luz presents a refreshing take on demonic possession in which the usual fright-flick cliches are nowhere to be found." - 07/15/2019 Hollywood Reporter
"[T]his modestly scaled yet slick and conceptually audacious enterprise commands attention. At the very least, it’s an auspicious debut." - 07/27/2019 Variety
"LUZ is a major announcement of a new talent. Singer has what horror fans look for in young directors -- a very strong eye, a unique set of influences, a gift with sound design." - 07/19/2019 RogerEbert.com
"[I]t’s an offbeat film that’s aggressively not for everyone. But if it’s for you, it’ll really be for you." -- Grade: B - 07/18/2019 A.V. Club
