Vivarium (2019) - Simple, slow paced, and deeply deeply weird (www.rottentomatoes.com)

This film got dragged for how slow paced and simplistic it is, but it honestly was perfect to me. It's one of the most unique and believable horror concepts I've ever seen and I thought it was executed to a T -- with the drawn-out nature of it just adding to the atmosphere. YMMV but I thought it was fantastic.

Loved it. I’ll take a psychological horror over jump scares any day. It was slow, but I feel like the pace emphasized the monotony of the thematic social commentary.

I rarely remember movies, but this one was a doozy.
I don't know if its really a horror movie tho. Disturbing for sure, but not scary.
Very memorable, even if it wasn't all great in other ways.
