The Institute

Marie (Victorya Brandart) had an incident giving child birth and appears she can't have children. She has poor quality CG nightmares. They find a place called The Lands Institute located in New England that specializes in fertility with unorthodox treatments. They go as a charity case. Husband Danny (Ignacyo Matynia) distrusts the doctor (Mark Lobene) who is cult-like and we soon discover has cameras in every room. The film didn't build properly for the ending. Managed to stay half engaged. Guide: F-word. Sex. Nudity (Victorya Brandart)

Talented writer with a cool plot and a hot cast make this a winner! Really enjoyed it as very diversified casting . Good editing for a fist time major release.

I went into this movie expecting a lot after seeing the trailer which intrigued me. The storyline for this movie is very appealing because it's dealing with a couple who is having fertility issues and trying to have a baby. The writer/director of this movie did a hell of a job at keeping the audience guessing as to what was really going on and building this sense of tension and dread that things weren't completely what they seemed. The acting in this movie is very good-- there is strong chemistry and believable performances from the two leads (Victoria Brandart and Ignacio Matynia) who carry the film. Doctor Lands (Marc Lobene) is CREEPY and his presence becomes very unsettling as the movie progresses! He is definitely up to something nefarious and the writer/director did a phenomenal job by not telegraphing it and letting the scenes build on each other. The two other couples who are at the Institute play their parts well and do a solid job with their acting. They created an environment that feels real as it's it's part clinic /part resort vacation. That pale attendant of the doctor -- she was also very good at being menacing and having an unsettling presence about her. She just seemed to pop up EVERYWHERE. Overall THIS is great indie film making on a solid budget. I'm glad I bought this film and I highly recommend checking it out.

Certainly a great attempt at using horror and creating a family. Interesting setup! Some moments of real interesting execution. A fun campy film if you can see it that way.

I truly loved the mixed of a good thriller and a realistic topic that nobody talks about. Recommended! And my respect for creating such an amazing movie during the Pandemic and with informed funds 🙌🏽

This film struck a great balance of the thriller aspects while having you care about the main characters and their journey to find the solution to having a child.

I have seen a few of these Amazon and Netflix "sci-fi" movies. 9 times out of 10 they take place in one room and a bunch of people freaking out. This movie has locations, action and me and my fiancé laughed through the whole thing. It is like body snatchers. We enjoyed it. I bet you would too.
