The Invitation (2015)

Director: Karyn Kusama

They Look Like People (2015)




Director: Perry Blackshear

This film, about a man who hears a voice telling him to prepare for an extraterrestrial apocalypse, is a quiet, beautiful and desperately sad meditation on humanity and friendship in what seems to be civilization's darkest hour. The trailer, especially its background narration, is badly misleading.
