Done in the style of a taped from air television commercial, this film opens by perfectly capturing the atmosphere of a 90s era Red Lobster commercial. In fact, if one were to stop at the first run, one would never know that wasn't the case.
But then, the commercial loops...
The performances of the cast, already believable in their commercial ready roles, begin to evolve. As one of the commercial's stars becomes aware that they are in a loop, things become gradually darker and confusing.
Don't expect anything to be explained, that would destroy the horror of what is going on. Instead, if you are willing to go for a 10 minute ride down this rabbit hole, you are going to be left chilled and pondering any potential deeper significance between the film's primary segments and that of its ending.
Too often films like this try to expand beyond their realistic scope, explaining things, or continuing beyond their natural conclusion. Not here... You cannot go wrong by watching this. It is a wonderfully done, tight little piece with no wasted energy.
If you get a chance to see this at a festival or the like, do not miss it.
