"He got answers?"
Starting off as a classic 'boy in a plastic bubble' drama, young Eli and his parents go off to an isolated converted old mansion for revolutionary gene therapy to cure his immuno-disease, and the film then becomes a creepy supernatural-style thriller as pipes creak, doors open by themselves and figures emerge from the shadows, before going in an utterly bonkers direction for an unexpected out-there finale. Eli is very contained and low-powered overall, until the last fifteen minutes at which most of the budget appears to have been thrown and that you are unlikely to see coming.
