So, 'Plants with Spikes or Thorns' is this intriguing little gem from 2015, shot on VHS, which already sets a certain, like, texture to it. The film dives deep into childhood sensory seeking behavior, which is honestly a pretty unique angle for a drama. The pacing is, um, deliberately slow, giving you time to marinate in the oddly immersive atmosphere. You’ve got these raw, practical effects that feel so tactile, almost like you can reach out and touch the screen. The performances are striking in their honesty, capturing the essence of curious, sometimes reckless exploration. It's not flashy but it really sticks with you in a way that you don't quite expect. There's something about its experimental nature that feels genuinely personal.
