What even was this, truly?
SLIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD!! OVERALL THOUGHT AT THE END!!
Honestly, I thought this movie was very good… until about the last half hour or so. It felt mysteriously horror ridden and I was very excited to see what the true end goal of Dr. Horn was. I thought due to Eli having an illness that we would end up in some sort of biological horror region… how did we end up with a weird religious thing?
I felt thrown into a tornado when all of us sudden it’s revealed that this entire thing had to do with religion, and my faith in the movie died in that tornado.
A good example that brought a religious cult or even something religion ridden into a movie at the end is Hereditary where the ending left you bewildered, but Eli did it in all the wrong ways. I was left facepalming with Eli’s ending, not left at the edge of my seat like Hereditary’s ending. Too cheesy for 2019, I feel bad for Sadie Sink.
Final thought: Dollar tree plot line version of Hereditary.
