About
If you enjoy scrappy post-apocalyptic horror with gore, weird cult vibes, and a virtual-reality hook, this may hit the spot; Not for you if you need polished effects, tight plotting, or subtle scares like The Bad Batch.
Pros: memorable atmosphere; gnarly gore moments; pulpy sci-fi ideas | Cons: cheap-looking costumes; weak acting; predictable, repetitive plot
