Avis à la une
3 women head for a weekend away to a swanky house in the desert. Two of them are social media influencers and one is not. In fact she isn't on any of the things and has a flip phone. A weird lil creature comes down in a meteor show and things get more and more body horror and bugnuts crazy from there. It takes awhile to ramp up and feels a little like a short film idea stretched thin in places. But once it does ramp up there is some gnarly visuals and practical gore effects and it gets very fun. It's a strong debut independent horror from a brand new director.
I loved the gooey stuff, the creature, practical effects and scenes with trippy imagery. Yay to all of that.
Didn't like how annoying the characters were. I think that will put a lot of people off and they may not even make it to the goo. This could've been quite disturbing with a set of likeable characters. But I guess it was all intentional.
Props to the director for making a movie. It's hard. I'll watch his next film.

It's ok, funny (not hilarious), creepy (not bone shatteringly scary) and weird (silly).
It's a take on modern life/tech meets 80's creature feature for some vain girls.

The Seed is an abysmal downer of a movie, with a plot that's so vapid, and characters who're utterly despicable. It's repetitive, boring, and substantially dull to the core. It doesn't even act as dumb fun. It's not fun, because it's unnervingly stretched out to the point that I had to skip forward through several scenes. The conversations between the girls have no point, the girls are highly dumb, and the mystery itself is a ticket to snooze-world. The alien has a face which could probably be the most laughable thing I've ever seen. And that's the only funny part of this. The moment I stopped taking that creature seriously, impatience steeped in, and add on top of that the shallow characters who're annoying as hell. So, I didn't care.
Now, I don't have all bad things to say. It's technically competent. The acting by the three leads was good, it's pretty gory, and there's a particular sequence, with girls and alien, more than halfway into the film which was pretty cool, and trippy. I give it 4 stars; 1 for the acting, 1 for the gore, and 2 for the mind trip sequence.
I'd probably have forgiven this, and would've maybe given 2 more stars, if our leading ladies' boobies got more screentime.

I looked at the 5 star reviews on shudder and thought this might be worth a watch. It was ok at best and nothing to get excited by.
For a low budget movie it's ambitious but ultimately a bit slow paced.
I really wanted to like it and maybe went in with unrealistic expectations because of the stellar reviews.
Not so bad you'd turn it off but not good enough to be remembered.

Le saviez-vous
- GaffesMeteor showers happen when the Earth moves through a field of "space debris" which then burns up in the atmosphere. Hence all the meteor trails will travel in the same direction. Meteors in a meteor shower do not come from all different directions and don't enter the atmosphere in all different angles like in the movie.
