See more Elias M @Elias_miguel_502 1d now this movie was quite the hard watch. i had quite a difficult time understanding the whole premise of the plot. Although i wouldn't recommend it to others, the hypnotic and absurd storyline was still quite unique and interesting if this is your kind of movie. -elias miguel See more valeria S @valeriasalgado 2d For someone that like scary and horror film this movie was something I didn't like and thought it was hard digest if im being honest it was a little disturbing. See more isa C @isacruz 2d Not extremely engaging, the dream like sequences were my favorite part and reminded me of a fever dream nightmare. I like that it explores the aftermath of bringing a child into the world wanted or unwanted and shows more of the males side. Felt really slow and confusing at many times. See more Kevin P 2d A very unique and bizarre experimental arthouse movie that combines body horror with abstract surrealism. The movie is very dreamlike and hypnotic. It feels like you're on the verge of being awake and asleep. The movie is bizarre surrealist and disorienting. It has very unique cinematography and terrific unsettling sound design. The lighting is also fantastic. The world Henry lives in feels alien and subtly threatening. You have so many questions that you eventually just accept the distorted reality. The deformed baby is disturbing to look and listen to. On one hand, the movie is very abstract and disjointed with seemingly random images pulled from David Lynch's subconscious. On the other hand, it clearly tells a story exploring the fears of parenthood and marriage. How Henry feels trapped in his new life and impending responsibilities. The movie operates on dream logic. It's not for everyone. But I still greatly appreciate the artistry of this movie. See more Read all reviews
