An Evening With My Comatose Mother

About This Movie

An Evening With My Comatose Mother is this off-kilter blend of comedy and horror that leans heavily into the absurd. You have this young woman, Dorothy, who thinks she's just there to enjoy a Halloween night, but then it spirals into this surreal babysitting gig with a comatose woman. The pacing is interesting; it maintains a quirky rhythm that keeps you guessing where it’ll go next. The practical effects are a nice touch, adding to that low-budget charm, and the performances really nail this combination of awkward comedy and dark themes. What’s striking is how it captures that uneasy Halloween atmosphere, kind of like a twisted coming-of-age tale that’s as unpredictable as it is entertaining.

Interesting blend of comedy and horror.Surreal babysitting scenario that unfolds unexpectedly.Captures a twisted Halloween atmosphere well.
