Vivarium
{4.5/5} “You’re a mystery and I’m going to solve you.”
Vivarium, released in 2019
Gemma and Tom are looking to buy a house. When they go to the real estate office, a guy named Martin tells them all about a new subdivision called Yonder. They aren’t expecting to buy a house there but they take a look at number 9 anyway. While they’re in the backyard Martin disappears. Then they find out that they can’t get out of the subdivision — all roads lead back to number 9.
The premise is terrific, and the story unfolds in a way that will keep you mesmerized.
It’s creepily effective.
Stars Jesse Eisenberg, Imogen Poots, and Jonathan Aris. Directed by Lorcan Finnegan (Without Name).
