About
You’ll like this if you want a shocking, mind-bending afterlife trip that stays with you, but Not for you if you need a clear, traditional story or dislike very long, uncomfortable psychedelic films like Requiem for a Dream or Inland Empire.
Pros: trippy neon visuals; immersive afterlife journey; unique experience | Cons: very long runtime; repetitive structure; uncomfortable imagery
