A group of people staying at a boarding house are gaslit and worse by the landy lady during a pandemic and the beginning of a zombie like apocalypse.
This a is a microbudgeted dark comedy that is all over the place tonally and with subject matter. A film with a lot to say HEMET is going to do its darnest to say it. You won't know whether to laugh or be shocked, not will you know if it's serious or not until it is.
Ths is a one of a kind film that may not play well with anyone who needs a real world sense of solid ground but for those who don't mind a film that is bold and willing to take chances this is going to be manna from heaven.
That the film works is due entirely to the cast who sell the tonal shifts and seeming odd turns.
Is the film perfect? No, the make up on the landy lady looks too much like a rubber mask and the film's budget bleeds through with a couple too many scenes with limited angles. However neither fact is fatal and this is one that should be on the list of anyone wanting to stay the hell away from typical Hollywood processed pablum.
