Disquiet (2023): Ugghh!

Disquiet, 2023, directed by Michael Winnick, streamed on Paramount+, 1 star.

Guy gets into a nasty traffic accident, is wheeled into emergency surgery, wakes up connected to a lot of tubes and machines, calls for a nurse, no one responds. Sits up, disconnects all the tubes and machines, goes looking for help, the hospital is abandoned.

A couple of weird things happen, you kind of guess where this is going, and then random people start appearing and attacking and disappearing again and the guy can't find his way out of the hospital.

And you start thinking how stupid this is going to be when we get to where we know we're going. And you sit through about an hour of unexplainable things happening and you hear some character spouting claptrap metaphors about life and death, and we finally get to that stupid place we knew we were headed.

This movie is not good by any stretch of the imagination. I'm kind of embarrassed to tell you that I sat through the whole thing. Fortunately, it only took about 85 minutes start to finish. Seemed like much longer than that.
