I thought I was watching a Brazilian film about a sleepy, bucolic village in the middle of nowhere. That introduction actually went on for nearly the first hour. Then it quickly transformed into a classic human hunt horror show with some really interesting twists!

This movie is definitely very different than anything I’ve ever seen. It combines drama, thriller, horror and a dash of surrealism. On top of that, it’s part Brazilian and part American in it’s cast and language.

The Americans aren’t depicted in a very favorable light; mostly racist, uncaring and cruel. Somehow, I think this was a commentary on how the abject poor might see us from afar.

I thought the ending scenes were worth the wait, but you definitely have to be patient as it unfolds. 4/5 for originality
