Viewing Notes

As noted on Twitter, this is a fever dream of wild visuals mixed with deep forest survival + a South African spiritual sequel to MATANGO. That alone is why I really like this movie. Pure ecological horror with fantastical elements.

Also would pair well with IN THE EARTH, THE RUINS, ANNIHILATION or even EYES OF FIRE. In fact, I love to watch all of these in one marathon.
