The film, which was released on Netflix, is consumed from the very beginning by a sense of eeriness and the foreshadowing of a sinister future for the quaint family. The “wastelands” are dark and barren, a suitable setting for the dark stories that, between father and son, are told about a beast that follows humans around feeding on their emotions, especially if those emotions creep into fear.Īll of this to say, the family in “The Wasteland” lives in a world far darker than ours. Over the course of an hour and 32 minutes, the TV-MA rated “The Wasteland” follows a family of three: Diego, Lucía and Salvador, living their colorless existence in the “wastelands,” isolated from society and the danger of something spine-chilling constantly looming over the three of them. Whenever you’re around someone who is complaining about the ‘repressive horrors’ of social isolation due to the pandemic, direct them to the film “The Wasteland” on Netflix.
