    Made it 20 minutes in.

    Low budget, ok production values with a plot that a snail could speed past. A dystopian movie that is about endurance for both the characters and the audience. I gladly failed the endurance test.

    Beautiful Glasshouse! :D UGLY Humans! :(

    Loved all the eye candy with that gorgeous Victorian Glass Conservatory. Wow, we just don't make things like we used to. :( Interesting story that I found to be a mix between The Beguiled (Clint Eastwood) and The Walking Dead (minus the huge amounts of gore).

    It's scary enough to have to worry about Alzheimer's and dementia, but to imagine a pandemic in which you lose all your memories and sense of self, and all animals and plants dying (and our very important BEES, that allow life to continue on this rock we call home) Especially to watch this during a pandemic, makes it quite a bit more scary, knowing what we now have learned about lies, misinformation and selfishness in the face of mass death world wide.

    Worth a watch, especially if you are a fan of The Beguiled and love beautiful Victorian eye candy like me. :D.

    Truly a thought provoking and great movie

    I give this 10 stars because not only did the ending completely bring everything together the way a great movie does..it had me guessing the entire movie.. that right when you think you figured it out, bam there's another curve right up until another twist! I only wish one our movie streaming apps like Netflix or Hulu would showcase this movie.. I would recommend all the fans of fantasy ditopian movies watch this mind bending art of a movie!! Other then Antebellum I don't think there has been a movie with such an amazing twist and shocking end and movies like this are rare nowadays. This intellectual creative story is a must see!!! Nothing and everything will surprise you!!

    Garden of Unsavoury Delights...

    There's a greenhouse, an oasis, behind the trees; it's a verdant paradise that has one bee; a cornucopia of pleasure; overflows with fleshy treasure; recycling and reclaiming endlessly.

    A variation on a familiar scene, the performances are great but the intent and interpretation, along with some sizable pot holes and inconsistencies leaves it a little underwhelming.

    Imperfect But Worth It

    This is a prickly slow burner with a gloomy atmosphere not unlike The Others. It's just incredibly refreshing to watch a film that isn't a reboot or a sequel or an adaptation or a remake. Just a solid original film. Acting is a bit patchy but the way the eerie story unfolds makes it all worth the watch.
