I only found out about this two nights ago (yes, advertising worked). Watched its trailer and was instantly intrigued. Really was lured by the lo-fi aesthetic and use of darkness. But as I'm seated in the cinema, damn, I started dozing off. I hate when that happens. But it couldn't be helped. There were times as I watched, where I squinted to see if there were things recessed in the darkness of the house - I liked that. When I attend the Sundance festival, they have a section called New Frontier, which is primarily experimental - and this definitely had that feel. Actually, I look forward to giving this another chance when it shows on Shudder later this year, I think it'll play better on a screen at home.
