The performances are remarkable, particularly from Kingsley, and I love the script. I can’t wait to see what Dan Kelly and Devereux Milburn do next, whether it’s together or separately.

Honeydew is a cannibalistic descent in a vintage-inspired hell complete with antique lace doilies and ceramic kitchenware. It is a fascinating, hallucinatory puzzle that is short a few pieces, but is still reminiscent of a classic like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Whizbang editing aside, it’s a slow slog of a movie with a seriously obvious destination.

This is a bizarre movie that disappears up its own empty gastrointestinal tract.

Milburn does the right thing as far as keeping a nihilistic tone for his conclusion, but it lacks the teeth to get us holding our breath. We restlessly await our own escape instead since we already suffocated about forty minutes prior.

Food — its preparation, consumption and just what the hell its ingredients are — figures in a minimal plot that the filmmakers inflate in a variety of slick but ultimately unimpressive ways (particularly in the editing).

When the inevitable finale with a thoroughly sign-posted twist arrives, you might realize you’ve already spent all your goodwill towards Milburn’s stylistically over-bloated film that chases one cliché after the next over the course of an overstretched running time.

Unsettling yet predictable. And it's more grotesque than scary, so even though the construction of the atmosphere is good, it's functional because it keeps you immersed in the story, but's not enough to make you feel uneasy about the situation. I admit it kept me interested, but it also didn't do anything remarkable. So I recommend low expectations.

Boring, slow, silly reactions from the couple, etc Don't waste your time with this sleeping pill.
