Over-stylized unwatchable nonsense.
This was all style and zero substance. What is the point of creating something 104 mins long with a story than could've been told in 5-10 minutes? Yes, we get it, co-writer and director Seth A Smith has a creative imagination, and even with a low budget using rubber tubes, red light bulbs and sheet metal can create visually appealing set pieces, but at least add some substance to the horrendously slow pacing and lack of any narrative in your writing. And for what little narrative there was, it was riddled with plot holes, ridiculous context, unconvincing scenarios, and incoherent, long dragged out scenes. Even the dialogue was infantile and gave no reason to care about the characters or there scenarios. There is nothing substantial to hold a viewers attention fort more than 5 minutes at a time, where you'll get bored, and fast-forward to the next long, boring and dragged out scene. Repeat for 104 minutes, with no reward throughout nor at the end. This may have been watchable as a short film, but watching paint dry is more exciting than sitting through this shallow empty story. It's a generous 3/10 from me, all for the decent score and cinematography.
Bits and pieces...
While there are elements of this film and it's script that have potential, those bits and pieces never come together in any kind of understandable, interesting, or relatable way. It was a relief when the credits started to roll.
I found the idea behind the plague and the canisters interesting. These story elements could have woven a compelling plot. This disease plot device was particularly clever. But in the end, the script is a garbled mess. Cinematography, make-up, and set design had moments of genius. But it in the end fails as a cohesive movie.
Skip this. Not worth your time unless your a film student that wants to see potential poorly executed.

Tin Plate
This is the worst movie made in 2020. I don't know about Tin Can but I reckon the director had a Tin Plate in their head...... They must have been brain damaged to have the cheek to put this on the market with a straight face. I have had migraines that were less painful than this dull pile of senseless grey tripe. At least make sure there is a story! Then try to make something that holds the attention of the viewer, then all the story needs is an ending. This film had none of these things. Don't get me wrong I love a good independent horror movie but there must be some semblance of a narrative otherwise it's just 1hour and 40minutes of expensive nonsense. I have watched more movies than most, of all genres in my 50 years on this planet but this has to go in my top twenty worse piles of idiotic self serving, egotistical nonsense movies of all time.
A must see for anyone into Scifi, Horror, or anything in between.
This movie has a funny way of getting into your brain. While the experiences of the characters are not distinctly relatable in the real sense, one can easily get immersed in the circumstance of being trapped, feeling helpless, and having to quickly come to terms with a twisted new reality.
With a body horror bend that is enough to make a seasoned horror vet squirm in their seat, this film is sure to find a home in your mind long after the credits roll.

I tried really hard to like this but...
It was not very good. The story was all over the place to the point where I stopped caring about the characters very quickly & never cared again. The production, acting & direction were fine, but the story was terrible.
