Leave your thoughts about Eden Log.
| Eye for FilmAnton Bitela dark treat which, far from patronising us with excessive exposition, leaves plenty of room in which the viewer can either wither or flourish |
| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanPitched between serious hard sci-fi and a mindless creature feature, it is mostly distinguished by its willingness to immerse its audience in its plot midstream. |
| House Next DoorSimon AbramsThough it looks like a highly polished, quasi-avant-garde bit of speculative fiction, contemporary French sci-fi flick Eden Log is really a far-flung descendant of the Heavy Metal comics of the '70s and '80s. |
| ESplatterLucius GoreA passable French sci-fi film, but far from great. |
| OregonianStan HallEden Log is frustrating to follow and has a protagonist almost completely devoid of personality, but Vestiel does have a certain visual flair, even if in this case it seems more suited to a video game than a movie. |
| User ReviewDeb KA low budget dark and sci-fil thriller that is haunting and yet filled beautiful imagery. Another film that proves that a great film can be shot with simple hand-held cameras. |
| User ReviewLauren MFascinating story. I loved the way it was shot, and the making of was really worth watching. I felt like I was experiencing all of the cold and darkenss the actors felt. I kept wondering what was worse, having to strain to see through the dark, or standing face to face with what was really happening around me. |
| User ReviewEmil SUn petit bijou de la SF francaise comme on en voit trop peu... |
| User ReviewAlec CMassively underated, sci-fi horror that keeps you in the dark for most of the film, constantly questioning what is happening. I found this to be truly unique in terms of art direction. |
| User ReviewBeth DMan, what's with all the hate for this movie? It's very unconventional, sure, but I loved it for that. Though I think this would have been much more successful as a video game. It's more about atmosphere than action, but if you want something thought provoking and different, go for it. |
