Content Warning: mild gore
Buffet Infinity has opened in the town of Westbridge, Alberta, Canada. It's got everything. Just ignore the sinkhole out back. And the weird, pervasive noise. And the lack of staff. And the constant expansion.
The entire movie is a series of local commercials and news alerts that somehow tells a coherent narrative. It's possibly the most original film I've ever seen and certainly the most original this year. And I feel like it'll come and go and no one will have ever heard of this outside film festivals and gorehounds like me. It is 100% not for everyone. If someone channel-surfing sets your teeth on edge, for example. If you've never been up late and flipped through all the infomercials in a kind of mindless haze, best to skip this. But if you have a weird nostalgia for the shitty used cars ads that were kind of like mini-serials, or the box collections of CDs for people you've never heard on a radio, please watch this. Please reward this kind of ingenuity. I promise you it's worth it.
It's streaming on Shudder/AMC+. It's got the sauce.
