Lovecraftian and cool, except I could do without the hysterical woman cliché.
So, men named Brock have pretty much sucked through time and space. I liked this a lot. Don't expect the science in the plot to make sense, but it's very interesting how sound was so important.
terrible! Thats all I can say
the ideas at the core of this movie - about probing and provoking something unknown/unknowable, and about the insatiable hunger of capital to reproduce itself no matter the cost, and how that hunger is itself reflected back at the technicians by the cosmic horror they uncover - have stuck with me for years. i love it for that.
Very special. I love Jane Asher. All the performances were good. A very unusual take on the supernatural.
