A fast-paced, entertaining, and slightly wacky genre-bender, this generationally targeted film is sure to find a rapt audience and also shows off its feature debut writer-director's unique voice.
It's What's Inside (that counts?) begins with a mind-messing tale of body-swapping, and then layers in a steady stream of visual flashes. Characters are lit throughout in bold colors, sent into rooms distorted by broken mirrors, carved up among split screens, and reenacted in animated collages.
Situated somewhere between sci-fi, psychological horror, and social comedy, it's all quite startling, twisty to sometimes confusing, and generally a lot of fun.
