Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1/4 --
Much of the time, watching Beyond the Black Rainbow is accompanied by head scratching, but perhaps that's the point of this trippy outing.

Toronto Star
Cosmatos has created a nightmarish world that's aggravating, hypnotic, and original.

Rating: 1/4 --
The movie looks like it was lit by lava lamps, scored on Moog synthesizers, written between bong hits and acted underwater. None of this is meant as praise.
Miami Herald
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Close-ups of a needle penetrating gnarled toes and a mutant slathered in what I choose to believe is bittersweet chocolate make as much sense as the scary drawings of angry vulvas hiding in a drawer.
New York Times
For devotees of science-fiction cinema at its most synapse-frying and voluptuously horrifying, the mother lode is exactly what [writer/director Panos] Cosmatos delivers.

This would-be cult classic is the movie equivalent of gazing at a lava lamp for nearly two hours.

A hell of a trip through the mind of a different filmmaker that will be relevant in the near future. [Full review in Spanish]

Product Description:
Filmmaker Panos Cosmatos offers an idiosyncratic sci-fi vision in this futuristic fantasy. In the year 1983, Dr. Mercurio Arboria (Scott Hylands) is a physician who, working with the government, has created a new program of physical therapy and medicine which is intended to bring people greater happiness and freedom than they've ever enjoyed before. However, one of the test subjects in Arboria's new scheme, Elena (Eva Allan), isn't so impressed -- she spends her days in a drug-addled haze while kept in a massive hospital complex against her will. Dr. Barry Nyle (Michael Rogers) is looking after Elena's day-to-day progress with the help of his nurse Margo (Rondel Reynoldson), but his efforts to reshape her mind are only so successful, and in time Elena becomes just conscious enough of her circumstances to plan an escape. BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW received its North American premiere at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival.
