The Allotment

About This Movie

So, 'The Allotment' is quite the curious piece from 2021. It’s a blend of horror and a bit of dark humor, really. You’ve got this guy just trying to tend to his garden—you know, the simple life—when he gets stalked by a guy in a baby mask. That’s what grabbed me, honestly. The whole thing shot on mobile phones gives it this raw, almost voyeuristic feel, especially coming out of the lockdown era. The pacing is a bit off-kilter, but it adds to the tension, right? And the practical effects? They keep it grounded and gritty. It’s not super polished, but it works for the story they’re telling, which is about isolation and madness. Definitely one of those oddities worth checking out.
