The Grainy Landscape, Worn-Out Household, and Remembering the Past in 28 Years Later
How do zombie films shine new light in the post-Covid and post-Brexit era?
Something In The Water
Jeremiah is lonely in the world of love. When his work mate rejects him, he can ’t handle it and begins to crumble into dark, comedic capitulation. Adding fuel to the fire is his alpha workmate, Johnson, an ice cream eating lady, three troublemakers and a sage old little kid. Centred around a dastardly love triangle, the film is about the demise of a lonely, misguided young man. Treated with comedy, it hopes to bring the audience in, so we can assess these traits in ourselves with some humility, and look with a fresh perspective at a prevalent, and often fatal (consider the recent rise and effects of incel culture) problem in our society.

As noted in the headline, I didn’t like this movie. Not to say it’s the worst thing ever, but it’s just…meh. Nothing much to it. Very generic. No surprises. At the very least, the cast is diverse so I’ll give it that.
