I happen to like movies in which people talk a lot and speak in a way that people don't really speak. Relationship movies that unfold. I stumbled on this on AMC Plus and I'm glad I did. What a weird, uncomfortable, but intriguing movie. The first flashback with the wife and the son is super creepy. Nice use of washed out green tones in that scene, like a 90s Japanese horror movie. I don't want to spoil too much and it's hard to get to the character count without doing it so I'll just say I also appreciate these kinds of indie films in which you don't recognize the actors from anything. It's easier to believe they are really the characters.

It's not really a horror or a mystery. More like an episode of Days of Our Lives set in The Twilight Zone. The 70s vibe is perfect in every way. I'd generally prefer something with more horror, action or bizarre narrative, like Terry Gilliam's work, but Climate of the Hunter is well made and offers something different.
