Uncanny Home

About This Movie

So, 'Uncanny Home' is a fascinating exploration of friendship and memory, set against the backdrop of virtual reality. The tone feels really introspective, almost melancholic, as you have these two friends sharing the same body, which adds a unique layer to their journey. You can feel the weight of their past as they navigate both sweet and painful memories from their home country. The pacing tends to ebb and flow, matching the emotional highs and lows of their experiences. Practical effects are used cleverly to depict their shared existence, and the performances feel pretty raw, capturing the essence of regret and nostalgia. It’s distinct in how it treats VR, not just as a tech gimmick, but as a medium for personal exploration.
