Can’t believe I slept on it thinking it was gonna be some run of the mill “people go to a place and get slowly killed off” type thriller. Highly recommend if you’ve also let it pass by like I have.

It’s also very funny.

    That's definitely the point it was going for but nothing really drove it home, they just kinda got brought back.

      Yeah, it could have definitely been done better to give it more clarity. If they had

      shown each of their plans failing because it was only 1 of them like rowing the boat in a circle because of only one oar or not being able to climb some tall height without a boost

      or something like that, the message would have been stronger.

        Yeah, it needed some Twilight Zone irony. Even the way its cut it feels like there was something there that was either cut or they didn't get to fully shoot.

          Just a cursory glance at youtube has shown several cut scenes from the movie that explain certain things better so maybe something was cut.

            It was a tightly cut movie and I enjoyed that but I'd for sure watch an extended cut.
