An extremely ersatz film. Promises a lot but delivers very little. The couple of real gems are hidden among a lot of filler. Not helped by one of the leads phoning it in.
I could not help feeling that the film was expecting far too much credit for some very simple offerings. It desperately wanted the viewer to congratulate it on being witty and clever when what it delivered was a fairly mediocre Twilight Zone episode.
If you are under 30, this film might be something, anyone over 30 has seen it all before. On TV. Not even a blockbuster movie.
Anyway, if you want weird, watch "Eraserhead". If you want safe, watch "I Saw the TV Glow".
