Ejecta

Burgess' script has an ingenious structure that leaves the middle of the story blank, but Ejecta doesn't improve by sketching in that central mystery.

The whole never makes much sense, and there's entirely too much screaming, but the directors stage the shocks with wicked aplomb.

The cogent character study nestled inside all the bombast remains crafty for its rare commingling of artful storytelling and genre nonsensicality.

Richings is fantastic as Cassidy, possessed by vulnerability yet never presented as weak.
