While staying at an isolated island resort, James (Alexander Skarsgård) and Em (Cleopatra Coleman) are enjoying a perfect vacation of pristine beaches, exceptional staff, and soaking up the sun. But guided by the seductive and mysterious Gabi (Mia Goth), they venture outside the resort grounds and find themselves in a culture filled with violence, hedonism, and untold horror.
The disturbing, funny, twisted, strange sci-fi nightmare is a dark plunge into the human condition or possibly just an exercise in extreme boundary pushing. Either way, it’s tough to take your eyes off of it…
Detroit News
The increasingly impressive son of David Cronenberg has made a wildly surreal, unapologetic, and violent movie about privilege, morality, and things I couldn’t possibly begin to explain in a review.
