A Cure for Wellness

2017 · 146 min

A slow, hypnotic descent into a beautiful but sinister world, blending clinical dread with grotesque body horror and a lingering sense of unease.

Tagline: All of us are human. None of us are immune.
Overview: An ambitious young executive is sent to retrieve his company's CEO from an idyllic but mysterious "wellness center" at a remote location in the Swiss Alps but soon suspects that the spa's miraculous treatments are not what they seem.
How it feels: Eerie, dark, tense and bleak. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Obsession, corruption, identity, madness
Content: Strong violence, gore and sexual content. Mild language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
