远古巨兽：狼蜥兽

 影片讲述了一个绝望浪漫者的愿望引发超自然诅咒的故事。Woe（迈克尔·约翰斯顿 饰）长期暗恋童年好友Nikki（印达·纳瓦雷特 饰），在一次表白失败后，他通过一件具有“猴爪”式超自然力量的 饰品许愿，希望Nikki能爱上他。但随着愿望成真，Nikki的行为逐渐变得异常，她的偏执和人格扭曲暗示其自主意识被某种恶意实体取代。

　　Like Fritz Lang, David Fincher or Bong Joon Ho before him, talented debut filmmaker Lado Kvataniya uses the concept of police detective vs serial killer for an excitingly stylised, macabre and haunting narrative, that ultimately revolves around the identity of an era: in this case, the late 1980s Soviet Union. With Glasnost and the end of communist rule, the West also learned of the (unsurprising) fact that there were serial killers in Russia too – the most notorious case probably that of Andrei Chikatilo, nicknamed the Rostov Ripper, or the Russian Hannibal Lecter.
　　Based on these and many other sources, Kvataniya and screenwriter Olga Gorodetskaya constructed an immersive psychological puzzle, jumping back and forth in time, to reveal ever new-possible motives for the actions of all the protagonists. It all starts in 1990, when Detective Issa Davydov is celebrating his promotion and receives a call, reporting a crime that looks precisely like the ones of the serial killer that he famously captured some years before ...

　　电影讲述了男孩尼可（大卫·索兰斯 David Solans 饰）的生活，他拥有超乎寻常的智力，对唯一的事情表现出浓厚的兴趣——下棋。尼可的父母卡洛斯（何塞·卡罗纳多 José Coronado 饰）和科拉尔（玛利亚·莫林斯 Maria Molins 饰）对他的反常行为感到担忧，特别是卡洛斯，决定聘请一位儿童心理学家胡里奥（胡里奥·曼里克 Julio Manrique 饰）来帮助理解和解决尼可的问题。
　　胡里奥通过与尼可进行下棋的方式，逐渐深入了解这位男孩内心深处的黑暗世界。在这个过程中，他发现尼可的家庭关系并不像表面上看起来那么简单。胡里奥的任务不仅是帮助尼可理解自己的问题，还需要阻止邪恶力量彻底毁掉这个男孩。
