The Bulb is a curious blend of horror and science fiction that immerses viewers in a disquieting atmosphere. The story unfolds in a dingy motel room where two strangers are drawn together by a strange public access broadcast. It's the kind of film that uses minimalistic settings and practical effects to build tension, relying heavily on the characters' interactions and the unease that the broadcast evokes. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like an homage to older horror flicks, allowing the dread to seep in slowly. The performances are understated, which makes the surreal elements even more jarring. There’s a distinct low-budget charm to it, making it an interesting watch for those who appreciate unconventional storytelling in genre cinema.
