Meantime

About This Movie

Meantime (2022) dives into a slow burn that captures the tension of solitude in an offbeat way. Marc, our city guy, finds himself in this serene countryside, but it soon morphs into a psychological labyrinth as unsettling sounds creep in. The way the film plays with sound design really stands out—it's like a character in itself, slowly chipping away at Marc's sanity. This layering of audio elements builds a palpable atmosphere of dread, contrasting sharply with the initial calm. The pacing allows for reflection, but there's an underlying urgency that keeps you on edge. There's something to be said about the practical effects used—subtle yet effective, they enhance the eerie vibe. Overall, it’s a unique take on horror that feels refreshed yet familiar.
