Viewing Notes

Still mystified by what was going on but really loved the languid pace, lack of revelations, lighting and production design.

Hilarious to see the crowd be completely flummoxed by this one after it was over. The series is called Friday Night Weird my good people, what did you expect!

From the director of EVOLUTION, so I kinda knew what I was getting into. This is a film that just doesn’t get made without government funding.
