Imbued with a convincing sense of impending dread essential to any effective horror-thriller, Jaime Balaguero's adaptation of British horror author Ramsey Campbell's The Nameless only falters while wallowing in a clich revelatory climax that's as predictable as it is unconvincing. Drawing inevitable comparisons to director David Fincher's similarly grim Seven (1995), The Nameless shares a similar tone and look with its American counterpart with its murky cinematography and menacing aura; both films feel as if careening towards some hollow, black abyss, though the characters in Balaguero's film seem arguably more personally driven and human, demanding the viewer's emotional commitment and playing off that investment with sadistic abandon. Balaguero has a keen eye for detail and the ability to let subtle terror seep like molasses from the celluloid instead opting for the typical "shock" scares. Thinking their missing daughter dead after police discover an unrecognizable body with similar features, Claudia and Quirgoa (Emma Vilarasau and Tristan Ulloa) suffer a shattering blow to their marriage that leaves Claudia a cold and distant shell of the loving wife and mother she used to be. When Claudia receives a disturbing telephone call years later from a girl who claims to be her daughter, the viewer senses the raw, crushing pain of past tragedy hitting her like the wave of repressed emotion that it is, making her desperate search for the only person that could truly make her feel love, or any emotion for that matter, all the more urgent and sympathetic.
