Estramged siblings Joseph (Adam David Thompson) and Sidney (Riley
Dandy) are on the run from the police - but fortunately they have arranged
for an abandoned farmhouse that comes equipped with a gateway to another
dimension, so a place the law can't follow, both physically and legally.
In this other dimention, Joseph and Sidney finally have time to catch up,
party some, and they have nothing to worry over there since they're all
alone and the fridge fills itself once it's emptied. So they seem to have
hit the jackpot - until they want to go back as they figure the thing must
have blown over. And then they find the door to the gateway nailed shut,
with the nails holding it shut renewing themselves once removed, and they
find they're no longer alone, as a person with a gun tries to ambush them,
and that person uses tactics that somehow harken back to their past ...
Made on modest funds, Things Will Be Different is
really a testament how low budgets can be overcome by imaginative
storytelling that makes the most what's at hand instead of shooting for
the moon and missing, and what the film might lack in production value it
more than makes up in originality, presenting the audience with a highly
unusual piece of science fantasy. And what helps making this movie work is
that it doesn't try to explain its concept away logically (or even
illogically) but instead concentrates on its characters and their arcs -
and that both leads give solid performances and have just the right
chemistry sure helps, as does a directorial effort well-versed in the
thriller genre, and the result is a highly original piece of genre cinema
that's well worth a watch.
Things Will Be Different will be in UK
and Irish Cinemas from 4th October, and on Blu-ray and eigital from
18th November 2024.
