Mayday

A woman at the water's edge, turning toward the camera

Where: VOD
What: Movie, 100 mins.
When: Now
Genre: Fantasy Drama
Why you should watch: Leave logic at the door and immerse yourself in this gorgeously shot fantasy that follows a defeated female hotel worker who enters a parallel universe that’s initially presented as a safe haven for women. The so-called paradise quickly becomes a blood-soaked nightmare and the hotel worker wants out, but return tickets are hard to come by. It’s emotionally compelling, and the landscape montages alone are worth the price of admission.
