About This Movie

Home Bodies is this intriguing little gem in the science fiction genre, where you really get drawn into the eerie, almost sterile atmosphere. The pacing takes its time, letting you soak in the unsettling isolation of the two kids raised by an automated house. They’re not just cut off from society; they're almost trapped in a surreal bubble, which makes that moment when the enigmatic stranger arrives so impactful. The practical effects have a charming retro vibe, adding layers to the unsettling yet fascinating narrative. What stands out is how it explores themes of identity and the nature of connection in such a cold environment. It’s definitely not your typical sci-fi fare, which piques a collector’s interest, right?

Home Bodies has seen limited releases over the years, making it somewhat of a rarity among genre enthusiasts. The film’s unique premise and execution have garnered a niche following, though it often flies under the radar in discussions about sci-fi cinema. Collectors appreciate its obscurity and the peculiar atmosphere it conjures, along with the practical effects that reflect its era. As a result, copies in good condition are often hard to find, further increasing its allure for dedicated collectors.
