The pregnant Becky (Laysla De Oliveira) and her brother, Cal (Avery Whitted), hear a child's call for help coming from a large field of very tall grass while stopped at the side of the road. Concerned for the child, they enter the grass and get lost themselves and separated. During their time in the grass they meet young Tobin (Will Buie Jr.), his father, Ross (Patrick Wilson) and mother, Natalie (Rachel Wilson). It becomes apparent that not everything is as it seems in the grass and eventually Travis (Harrison Gilbertson), Becky's ex, will come in search of the pair. A twisty tale with time loops, ancient magic, mystery, madness and murder.
The story itself is pretty interesting and the time looping elements flesh out the overall plot. Will Buie Jr.in particular gives a great performance as the various versions of Tobin. There's also a fair amount of gore, which I hadn't anticipated.
However, the film suffers from a drudging pace, and although the grass is certainly menacing, I found it a long 90 minutes.
