Movie Review: Meander (2020)

the horror continues... 47 nights till Halloween!
.
tonight's feature: Meander (2020) on Prime

Meander is another horror movie that could benefit from a better, or more accurate name. "Escape the Aliens Human Habitrail Death Trap" or possibly just "Now WTF Is Happening?" This bizarre French sci-fi sort of thing basically starts with our protagonist magically trapped inside a deadly "series of tubes" (as Ted Stevens might call it) that she has to escape from. Sometimes the tubes have fire, sometimes a vat of acid, a dead body here or there, and a crispy-fried zombie guy for good measure. Also what looks like a stomach room with two sphincters on each end. Nifty.

It's not a bad film, just a whole bunch of "WHAT?" going on here that is less horror and more just confused dramatic tension. Kudos to the writers for making the completely inexplicable ending. Maybe it wasn't the best choice to watch in a crowded airport. 6 glowing clock wristbands out of 10.
