Craig B Hmmm... I think the title of this movie pretty much encapsulates this entire film, in my opinion... extramundane Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Alex A What an unmitigated, dreary and ultimately so disappointing piece of shite Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review Bill C From the dread-laden opening chords and the menacing shots of rusted pipes, it’s clear we’re in for a tense and unsettling tale. Extramundane plunges us into the life of Trevor (Brant Rotnem), who takes on the role of property manager at a disturbingly eerie apartment complex amid a pandemic. As Trevor navigates his new job, he grapples with the loss of his father and the mysterious disappearances of various tenants. The film is saturated with mystery, keeping the audience on edge as it unravels its dark secrets. The cinematography is leeched of color, providing a gritty, almost oppressive feel that perfectly matches the film’s tone. The sound design and score are particularly effective, heightening the tension and drawing viewers deeper into the narrative. While Extramundane includes several slow-burn dialogue scenes, it’s the direction and cinematography that truly shine, keeping audiences glued to the unfolding story. The film masterfully combines its visual and auditory elements to create a haunting atmosphere that lingers long after the credits roll. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/13/24 Full Review austin b A darkly funny covid indie from writer/director Joshua Sowden who quite cleverly manages to weave and sustain remarkable tension and suspense within the near-claustrophobic confines of a covid distressed LA apartment complex ripe with fear and trepidation. I could be wrong, but it wouldn't surprise me if Sowden took some of his inspiration from Polanski's earlier films. In fact, the excellent and at times funny cast (see Covid Ass Kicker) can hold their own against many a big budget - big name production. Good camera work and skilled preparation make it easy to loose yourself in this well-paced horror-thriller.The awards and nominations are certainly deserved and with more to come I am sure. Enjoy as I did. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review kyle s Extramundane is an unsettling and effective thriller. It makes the job of apartment manager seem dangerous. This film really gets under your skin and stays in your mind. The direction and cinematography were excellent. The desaturated look was interesting as well. Well done all around! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Kris Y A new building manager during the height of the pandemic takes it upon himself to solve the mystery of why so many people in his building have gone missing. He discovers a dark history of the building and enters a nightmare from which he must fight to escape. I've seen a few ""contained", isolation films that were made during the pandemic and they were not great however this indie film surprised me. The camera work is good, the acting is believable and the writing is not bad. It kept me guessing and the twist is great. Check out Extramundane!
