Temporal

About This Movie

So, 'Temporal' from '84 is a curious blend of surreal comedy and, well, chaos. Picture this: you've got these uptight religious-monarchists clashing with a raucous party crew dressed as animals. The atmosphere is charged, especially when that storm rolls in, plunging everything into darkness. It creates this almost claustrophobic tension. The pacing is a bit uneven but that just adds to the wild unpredictability of the night. And those practical effects? They lean heavily into that low-budget charm. Performances are over-the-top, which really suits the zany premise. It's all about the juxtaposition of order versus chaos, really. Not your typical comedy, but definitely one that lingers in your mind.
