Verdict on Trauma Therapy Psychosis
Trauma Therapy Psychosis is a horror thriller following a group of subjects looking to battle past traumas. The subjects are put through a string of intense trials to find a solution. However, how far are they going to be pushed is the bigger question.
This is a movie that gets to examine the social studies of people put through extreme measures for treatment. It doesn’t shy away from the limits it wants to push the characters. However, the idea of an interview describing the stories is interesting to see. This doesn’t bring too much new to the table in the form of what they get put through. However, it tries to put a few twists and turns into the final out.
Final Thoughts – Trauma Therapy Psychosis is a twisted way to treat people.
