Three friends on a road trip decide to check out the house of the hacker that’s been harassing them for some time. Careful observations, planning, thinking through different scenarios and all the other fun stuff usually classified as overthinking. As someone who not only prefers but almost completely relies on rationality, I enjoyed in this aspect of the movie. The filmmakers have stated that they were exploring how we make decisions in the movie, whether we rely on our rational thinking or emotions. And while we’re going down the rabbit hole, I also have to mention Primer from 2004, made with just $7000, something that just boggles the mind. Another Earth made just on a $100.000 budget (compared to $4 million) shares this similar position.

It is quite refreshing to see an indie science fiction movie done right and that’s something I want to support. For the full viewing experience, you will need to put in a bit of effort, mostly analyzing where are we going with our technological advancement. Although the movie starts as standard hipsterama, if you just hold on ’till the first serious conversation that really nailed me to the bed (not the weed I was smoking, no sir) you will check it out.
Working on a limited budget Will Eubank did wonders with special effects and the whole vibe of the movie. While we are on the subject, let’s check out another science fiction movie that came out this year starring Brenton Thwaites ( The Giver).
