I Woke Up Like This takes you to a chilling Irish farm where Mark is preparing for something that feels far more sinister than spiritual enlightenment. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, as the group’s eccentricities unravel. The pacing keeps you on edge, blending dread with curiosity, as you question their motives and the ritual's true nature. The practical effects are minimal yet unsettling, enhancing the film's eerie vibe. Performances are raw and unsettling, grounding the bizarre premise in a sort of grim reality. It's this blend of existential dread and the uncanny that leaves you mulling over its themes long after you've seen it.
This film is somewhat elusive in collector circles; it hasn't seen a wide release, which adds to its mystique. There are a few limited edition runs out there, but they tend to trade for a premium among those who appreciate its unorthodox narrative style. The scarcity and the film’s gripping exploration of themes like existentialism and group dynamics keep it on the radar of niche collectors.
