This film is X-Men meets Leave No Trace and they also kidnapped Bruce Dern from Nebraska. It features a great child performance à la Linda Blair (The Exorcist) from 8 year-old Lexy Kolker who has the potential to become a full-blown star. This film also has the potential to become a cult classic as it has all the intrigue, mystery, special effects, slow-burn, great acting performances, and a unique take on "the other".
In the Q&A, they kept talking about how much was improvised. I found it really hard to tell that it was improvised, because it was seamless. I really liked the cinematography.
It doesn't come out in the USA until September (Friday the 13th-wooooo), but be sure to keep it on your radar.
Vegan alert:
Ice cream is prominently featured.
