This film had the misfortune of being dumped by its studio at the time of release AND coming out the week after Black Panther but make no mistake, this is one of THE most impressive science fiction horror films of recent years.  

It was directed by genre master Alex Garland (Ex Machina) and stars Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson, and Oscar Isaac. 

 It all revolves around the expedition of four scientists into a mysterious area of Florida swampland now occupied by alien life known as “The Shimmer” and what transpires there is not for the squeamish! 

Host: Geoff Gershon
Producer: Marlene Gershon
