Synopsis

Rivalries, dark secrets, and sexual tension emerge when three best friends find themselves stranded on a yacht in the middle of the ocean under suspicious circumstances. What follows are the lessons in survival with twisted outcomes.

Program Note

Rob Grant’s pitch-black humor shines on this exercise of maligned dynamics and rivalries between the trio of awful characters, as toxic masculinity and friendship are put to the test through key revelations and resulting shocks and surprises. This horror survival film thrives thanks to excellent performances by all three, in addition to mocking narration that further exemplify each character’s flaws. (Jongsuk Thomas NAM)
