A dark comedy home invasion thriller that's neither suspenseful, dark, nor funny enough to make up for how odd it is. It has unconventional characters put into absurd situations but the film's not sure what tone it is shooting for, or try to experiment with it but didn't get the result it wanted which makes it a little difficult to enjoy the film. It's almost a 2 hour run time but I feel like it jumps into the insanity without properly ramping up the tension beforehand. Still not a total waste of time though. thanks the island castle location with some beautifully shot images of the seaside.

This film is easier to appreciate if you go into it expecting absurdism. This is neither a dark comedy nor a thriller. As Caesar points out in his commentary, the madness suddenly hits the characters, with no development. But the entire film is "mad," in that nothing makes much sense, everybody behaves unpredictably, and all is bizarre. Place yourself in a frame of mind for Beckett or Sartre, and you'll do fine.
