A Quirky, Weird Ride!

Don't heed the low-rater haters on this one! This is a gem of a find among indie films and it's WELL worth your time!

Unlike so many films that cram the details of a storyline down your throat like you're a moron (M. Night Shyamalan, I'm looking at you), this story let's you think for yourself. You won't get every detail handed to you, but that adds to the sense of mystique in the plot.

What is Darken? Who is Mother Darken? What has become of her? Where does the outside go?

This is a film well-done. Solid cast. Fluid dialog. An intriguing ending. They could have run this one as a pilot for an outstanding series that I would probably binge watch.

Pop some corm. Prop your feet. Watch. You won't regret it!
