Painless

Painless primarily evokes a sense of Disturbing unease due to its central premise of an asylum attempting to 'rehabilitate' children by teaching them physical suffering. This leads to significant Fear and Anxiety, characteristic of its horror genre, amplified by the mystery surrounding the dark past and the neurosurgeon's desperate search. Sadness and Empathy are strong for the children subjected to inhumane treatment and the protagonist's personal plight. Curiosity and Anticipation drive the audience through the unfolding mystery, while Anger and Disgust are provoked by the cruel and unethical methods depicted.
