A series of eerie occurrences, like Einar sleepwalking and a weird knock in the middle of the night, also hints that something isn’t quite right with what we’re witnessing.

A flashback to the summer before reveals that he once spotted a young boy named Leemoy (Einar’s childhood imaginary friend) that wasn’t actually there.

He then stumbles upon a “portrait of an artist” video Einar filmed out on the bluff (known as the Disappearance Field), so his search takes him far and away from the house and leads him to Einar in a bright red jacket–a symbol threaded throughout the entire film. An array of beer cans and silence greet Gunnar, seemingly confirming his worst suspicions. Gunnar hasn’t been back since the summer before, and the entire relationship comes flooding into his head. Despite it being the holiday season, he ventures back out to a secluded home, owned by Einar’s parents, where they spent so much of their time together.

Along the way, you’re whipped into an emotional frenzy. Both films depict the maddening descent into chaos, each detailing how a relationship meets a bloody, grisly end. In celebration of Pride Month, let’s take a closer look at two such films, Icelandic horror/thriller Rift and Canadian psychological terror What Keeps You Alive. Toss in a tortured relationship, and it’s the perfect storm.
