Reviewer Ed Farolan

This freakish show follows the concept of mutants, similar to X-Men, where creatures of this nature were discrimated on, punished and killed. So it´s hide and seek between humans and their preys, these creatures with supernatural qualities.

A bold girl (Emile Hirsch) discovers a bizarre, threatening, and mysterious new world beyond her front door after she escapes her father's protective and paranoid control and meets her grandfather (Bruce Dern) who reveals the mysteries.

The movie was filmed in Vancouver and had its world premiere on September 8, 2018, at the Toronto International Film Festival. It stars Bruce Dern and Emile Hirsch, both mutants, and hiding from humans.

It´s an interesting sc-'fi thriller, and if you enjoy the special effects in X-Men, you´ll surely enjoy this DVD which will be available soon.
