Moon Child

About This Movie

Moon Child (1989) is this curious blend of drama, fantasy, and sci-fi that really gets under your skin. The pacing is somewhat slow but intentional, creating this ethereal atmosphere that mirrors the journey of young David. He’s not just a kid; he’s caught in this web of a semi-scientific cult that gives him these wild mental abilities. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, add a quirky charm that enhances the film’s unique vibe. The themes of destiny and self-discovery are explored in a way that's both intriguing and haunting. It’s definitely one of those oddities that stick with you long after the credits roll, making you think about where you belong in the grand scheme of things.
