In the Earth (2021)
7/10
Interconnectivity.
9 May 2021
Interconnectivity presented through a psilocybin induced fever dream of a movie. Definitely not for everyone, (apparent through the one sided reviews), but those who know Ben Wheatley will know this going in.

While not his greatest effort I think it's a flawed but solid little folk horror. All the performances were fine (just fine) and the setting and hallucinatory scenes work well. Good atmosphere with a little cringey gore thrown in.

Getting anything made like this during the pandemic must've been hell so I'm impressed. Just wish I could have seen it in a cinema because I've got a feeling the sound design would've been an experience.

6.3 from me.
