Audience Take

Be prepared for a shock, as this is unlike anything I've ever seen on film and truly beyond words to describe. We've now got a refreshing look at family life amongst the trauma these people are facing, and it's wonderfully comforting. I've not seen the underlying epidemic that this family is dealing with from this side, and it's being portrayed in the loudest way I've even witnessed.

Brenda Bell

Some great moments buried in an average film. A fair 6.4 — sounds right to me. Watchable, but not one I'd revisit.

Sandra Taylor

I have to say, these actors understood the assignment completely. In addition, genuinely unsettling in the best way.
