Benson and Moorhead have been straying from the horror genre for a while now, Something in the Dirt takes things one step further and digs into full-blown mystery territory. With hints of fantasy, sci-fi, and horror to balance things out, they made a pretty unique film that defies easy comparisons.
It's cute that Benson and Moorhead took on the lead roles here. They're pretty decent actors too. It's a little hard to figure out the direction of the plot at first, but that's exactly what kept the film interesting, making it easier to invest in the plot and characters. And even when things start to take on a more concrete form, the vibe remains quite eerie, fuzzy, and mysterious. Good fun.
