Just saw this trailer on TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtOwfo1ypOw

Wkipedia info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Life_(2018_film)

IMDb info: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4827558/?ref_=nv_sr_1

It looks and sounds interesting.

Dunno if this was meant to be a porn movie or a SciFi flick. By any measure it fails at both.

One watches mostly out of morbid curosity and perhaps hoping against hope that it will become a good porn flick or a better SciF. But neither ever happens.

The official write up on it:

"Monte and his baby daughter are the last survivors of a damned and dangerous mission to the outer reaches of the solar system. They must now rely on each other to survive as they hurtle toward the oblivion of a black hole."

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4827558/

To sum it up: I have seen better films on the eye of an old dog.

Well, the trailer certainly doesn't give us a clue as to what the story is about — but then, they never do these days, eh? Rolling Eyes

Thanks for the warning, Mr. Oaks. Very Happy

Wow, if that doesn't warn me to stay away from this one, I'd gleeful play in traffic with no idea that I was about to die! Very Happy
