Trivia
The opening sequence displays the activities of an avian (bird) brood parasite, which rely on other birds to raise their young. The brood parasite manipulates a host, of the same or another species, to raise its young as if it were its own, using brood mimicry, for example by having eggs (or pudgy, weird babies) that resemble the host's. This behavior relieves the parents from the investment of rearing young. Some bird species mitigate the risk of egg loss by distributing eggs among a number of hosts.

Goofs
When the main characters are dancing in front of the car you can see a crew member hiding behind the car door.

Quotes

Meh

It started out fine. The tone reminded me a bit of Cube (1997) and I have to say that I was intrigued for the first 30 minutes or so. But in spite of being a mere 90 minute long movie, it drags. Which reminds me of Richard Kelly's The Box (2009). Both movies have an interesting premise, which might be enough to fill more than an episode of a show like The Twilight Zone or Black Mirror, but not an entire feature film. The symbolism is very heavy handed and could have done with a bit more finesse.
