Glorious vurderinger og anmeldelser
- Daniel Djakovic25. mars 2026Such a slow movie. Didn't get to finish it.
- Paul Walsh13. februar 2026This flick is pure, unadulterated cosmic horror greatness. I can't recommend it enough if you appreciate all things Eldritch.
- Meg Lem Graz14. desember 2025Quality HPL cosmic horror that I believe would make King proud. Simmons' (voice) is fantastic and Kwantan wasn't too shabby either. Some unexpected funny dialog with thoughtful subtext on modern toxic masculinity and role delusion. CGI effects were well executed. This is how to make believable, effective horror on an indie budget. Excited to see where McKendry goes from here.
- Michael Darby4. november 2025Didn't expect a Lovecraftian piece!
- trrs23. mai 2025Weird but kinda intresting
- jackmeat17. september 2025My quick rating - 5.8/10. So far, I hear J.K. Simmons' voice behind the hole in the wall, or the "glory hole" if you will. After a breakup, Wes (Ryan Kwanten) ends up at a remote rest stop. He finds himself locked inside the bathroom with a mysterious figure speaking from an adjacent stall (Simmons). Soon, Wes realizes he is involved in a situation more terrible than he could imagine. That is the mild way of putting it when you get yourself stuck in a Lovecraftian universe right on the brink of cosmic horror. For being a Shudder flick, it is far deeper than you would expect. Without breaking down the story in what I think happened (this is one that there can be multiple opinions, so I am not even sure I am correct), this tells a tale of Wes and his depression after losing his girlfriend, Brenda (Sylvia Grace Crim). As I mentioned, he tries to drink his sorrow away at a rest stop and, while puking in the bathroom, ends up in a very serious conversation with a voice that claims to be "Ghat", or what he perceives is g-d. You would need to know a little about H. P. Lovecraft here to know Ghatanothoa was a hellish god or patron daemon brought to Earth, but normally spent his time imprisoned, and in this movie, claims it was in the ether. If you go in without any idea of this subject matter, the whole thing makes absolutely no sense. However, just that tiny bit of knowledge will help you understand a bit more about why these two may have met up in the restroom. I actually watched this one twice, and the second go-round did clue me in a lot on the clues being dropped along the way, so you would need to be paying attention to verbal detail to fully appreciate this one. The two do act well and play off each other's cues to make the situation plausible. There isn't much action since the vast majority of the time, the banter takes place in the bathroom. The only other character to enter the storyline is Gary (André Lamar), who has one singular purpose here and fulfills it in a manner I assume any of us would. I can only say that it is a pretty interesting story that tells a tale in a way that you must formulate your own ideas. It won't be all confusing if you don't completely put it together, and you can even take it at face value without all the hidden mythos references and still get a unique experience. It certainly has originality in abundance, I just wish it had forced a bit more horror into the story. Rebekah McKendry cut this one in at 79 minutes, so a little embellishing in the terror or gore department would've been fine with me. Still an entertaining indie flick that flies under the radar for you.
- DigitalDisappointment1. februar 2025Excellent performances once you get past the initial, over-acting crap from "Wes" beating himself up and providing us with a heavy-handed demonstration that "LOOK! I am a LOSER". The rest of the surprisingly short film more than makes up for it.
- tellum29. mai 2025This is one of the strangest movies I’ve ever seen. If you are looking for something so absurdly out of the box that it’s hard to compare to any other movie, take the risk and give this a watch.
