As mentioned on the Movie Junk Podcast: Episode 961: In Brutal Nature + TIFF 2024 (2024)
At its core, it’s not a scary movie, the problem is that the foundation is made up of so many ideas and themes that it’s hard not to get lost in the chaos.
It’s a critique of technological progress, artificial intelligence, privacy and spyware, (experimental) surgery and health, the Chinese, capitalism, the rich, modern society, etc
The bad writing doesn’t help either, the dialogue can be silly or just plain cheesy, the story jumps between characters and storylines in a sloppy way, I know (or at least think) that some of the dialogue is self-aware and not meant to be taken seriously, it’s funny (the audience laughed from time to time) and honestly hilarious.
