In the Earth (2021)
6/10
Strangely entertaining, but very weird.
11 December 2022
The world is in the midst of a deadly virus, scientist Martin Lowery is joined by park ranger Alma, the pair head into a forest looking for equipment, where they encounter Zach.

I was really looking forward to this, a good cast, an interesting script, and a relevant theme, as it was made during the Covid 19 pandemic.

Very atmospheric and visually quite appealing, it had some plus points, including the acting, Squires and Fry were good, Reece Shearsmith was particularly zany as Zach.

Very much out of that arthouse style, it's very avantgarde, a style that will appeal to some, and equally irritate others.

It's slow in parts, and does seem to take an age to get going, but when it does, it's actually quite entertaining, Zach makes for a good villain, and there's enough intrigue and suspense to keep you entertained.

Weird, but entertaining, 6/10.
