Strange Vibes

About This Movie

Strange Vibes is an interesting blend of comedy and horror, with this 2018 flick exploring the anxieties of modern job hunting through a retro lens. The protagonist’s encounter with a VHS tape featuring an 80s pop star adds a surreal layer that feels both nostalgic and unsettling. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it really captures how bizarre things can get when you’re trying to make sense of the world. The practical effects add a certain charm—there's a tactile quality that’s refreshing compared to today's CGI-heavy fare. Performances are quirky, with a mix of deadpan humor and over-the-top moments that give it a distinctive voice. It definitely has its own vibe, if you know what I mean.
