"Thesis" by director Alejandro Amenábar is interesting movie. The first part builds up suspense well. Angela is doing an examination paper at film school in Madrid. She wants to explore why is death and killing so fascinating to so people.
She teams up with another student called Chema, who is pathologically obsessed with violence. They discover snuff movie that shows a young woman torture horribly and killed. When they find out it was actually a student at the university, things take more drastic turn into the morbid.
While the first half was done fairly gd the second part of the movie was a big disappointment. It moved at a snail's slow pace and was far too seedy to be enjoyable to my taste, even if the point is that maybe we should not explore these types of things past certain limits.
I would have rate this higher, but the movie took a turn for the worse. If you into snuff movie analysis, this is probably worth a look, otherwise stay away.
