    She Loved Blossoms More

    "A trippy ass horror movie that goes into some realms I couldn’t even fathom thinking of myself. It’s a highly enjoyable watch leaving you with a sense of what the hell is happening. Highly recommended! Packaging and presentation are excellent!"

    Matt R. (5/5)

    The head is in another dimension…

    "A strange fever dream fueled by matriarchal loss and familial grief. In a world that blends fairytale with retro-futuristic technology, very reminiscent of Jean-Pierre Jeunet and David Cronenberg, three brothers attempt to bring back their dead mother via a piecemeal time machine made primarily from a closet. With a healthy dose of narcotics, and a night of psychedelic nightmare fuel, the tone takes on a more Gaspar Noe feel… where bad things happen. As the rabbit-hole falls out the bottom in the third act, the film goes all in on folk horror hell, all inclusive of a (third-eyed, golden encrusted) decapitated head, botany based drugs and pure surreal whimsy - practical puppet man also present! Overall, this film is darkly comedic and strangely beautiful. Seamlessly weaving together genres, and successfully pulling off a lurid story ripe with emotional value. Highly recommend!"

    Steven B. (5/5)

    Baffling and worth repeated viewings

    "At the onset the movie can be confusing and disorienting but I think that is the point. Great visuals and music. Definitely worth watching multiple times to get the full effect."

    Michael R. (5/5)

    Wild ride

    "There are images from this movie that will haunt my nightmares forever"

    Jason A. (4/5)
