3/5

Despite the evidently esoteric subject matter, Grabham and Sharp provide enough stimuli to guide us from cynicism to curiosity - perhaps even captivation.

A short and beautiful but not very profound tone-poem about a life form that is unglamorous and often neglected.

This neatly shot oddball film may not have wide appeal, but its quirky humour and abiding sense of wonder will undoubtedly connect with those intrigued by the subject matter.

Fun documentary, as much about slime molds as it is about the people that like slime molds, many of whom are quite good at intense staring. I found the soundtrack in all its horror-referencing glory somewhat overbearing, which surprised me since I am generally a fan of Jim O'Rourke's work.
