Things 5

About This Movie

Things 5 dives deep into that familiar horror territory where scientific ambition goes wildly awry. Set within the sterile, oppressive walls of the Biogen 4 Research Labs, the film crafts an atmosphere thick with dread. The pacing can feel uneven at times, but it builds this palpable tension as those experiments—those grotesque creatures—break free. The practical effects are notably impressive, showcasing a tactile quality that’s often missing in today’s CGI-heavy landscape. Performances range from the anxious to downright frantic, which helps sell the chaos unfolding. It does have that grungy, indie vibe, giving it a unique charm. If you appreciate horror that leans into its own bizarre science fiction roots, this one's worth a look.
