If you like HP Lovecraft, THX 1138, or David Lynch movies you may well enjoy this one too. The plot seems a bit too far out, and there appear to be so many plot holes that the establishing sequences may prove frustrating. It's worth waiting though- contrary to several of the reviews on this IMDb page, there is actually a plot resolution that helps explain what you just watched. I don't think it's any more abstruse than the ending of THX 1138. The best news is the staggeringly beautiful cinematography, locations, set design, and makeup. These combine perfectly to help create a disturbing psychosphere that somehow manages to be both stark and voluptuous at the same time. Despite the deeply oppressive Lovecraftian atmosphere throughout, the film climaxes with great spiritual beauty- and sadness.
